BASKETBALL Consists of five players per team going up against another team. To play basketball, necessary skill such as ball handling, dribbling, passing, shooting and defense are important.
The game basketball was invented in 1891 by Dr. James Naismith. Dr Naismith is a Canadian physical education professor at International Young Men’s Christian Association Training School (YMCA), in Springfield Massachusetts. Born on November 6. 1861 in Almonte, Ontario.
The invention of basketball. The game of basketball was invented by James Naismith in 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts, to condition athletes during the colder months. Naismith was a prior physical education instructor at YMCA International Training School, which is now Springfield College.
At the request of his superior, he was tasked with creating an indoor sport that would help athletes to stay in shape during the cold weather. It originally consisted of peach baskets and a soccer-type ball. He made 13 rules for his game and divided his class of 18 students into two teams of nine players and started teaching them the basics.
The objective of his creation was to throw the basketball into the fruit baskets that were nailed to the lower railing of the gym’s balcony. Each time a point would be scored, the game had to be paused so that the janitor could get the ladder to retrieve the ball. After some time, they finally removed the bottoms of the fruit baskets, having to retrieve the ball after each score was far from practical.
The first official game was played in the YMCA gymnasium in Albany, New York, on January 20, 1892, with nine players on each team. The game ended at a 1-0 score. By 1898, teams of five players became standard. Frank Mahan, one of the players from the or iginal first game, suggested “basketball” in early 1892 to the game Naismith invented. The metal hoop with backboard was only introduced in 1906 to replace the peach baske t.
It was only in the 1950’s when dribbling became a major part of the game as ball manufacturing improved the ball’s shaped and handling. It was also the time that Tony Hinkle, a renowned football and basketball coach that time, introduced the use of orange-colored ball for great player and spectator visibility.
