Basketball!!



History of Basketball

Basketball was invented in 1891 in Springle Massachusetts in the United States by the sports coach and innovator James Naismith. The reason why he invited this sport was because he had to invent an indoor game that would capture student’s attention while they’re indoors as they were at Massachusetts because of the winter. Perhaps the rules have changed among the time passes. For example Team Size, Team Size wasn’t established. Before, it was play by any number of players, unlike today that we have a certain amount of players at a time. Substitution has changed too. Initially there was a rule that said players can re-enter the game, unlike today that it is possible. Some other things that have changed too are scoring, timing, baskets, shot clock fouls and so on. Basketball is one of favorite seasonal sports, it is fun, entertain, and exacting.
