History of basketballThe basketball was born as a response to the need for any winter sport in the YMCA school in Massachusetts. Professor at the University of Illinois (MA) James Naismith, (a physical education teacher) wasentrusted the mission in 1891 to devise a game that could play indoors, because the winters in the area hampered the realization of any outdoor activity.Naismith analyzed the sports that were practiced at the time, whose dominant feature was the force or physical contact, and thought of something sufficiently active, which required more skill than strength and not having much physical contact. TheCanadian recalled an old childhood game called "duck on a rock" (The duck on a rock), which was to try to reach an object placed on a rock by throwing a stone. Naismith asked the manager of the school boxes of 50 cm. in length but all he got were some baskets of peaches, who commanded hang on the railings of the upper gallery surrounding the gym, to a certain height.Main rules of basketballJames Naismithdevised a set of thirteen rules for the fledgling sport.
