Basketball, a fascinating sport, originated from 189 1 year and has a history of 108 years. It originated in America. 18911In early February, James, a physical education teacher and Canadian-American, was at the YMCA International Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA (later renamed Springfield College, now the location of Springfield University Basketball Memorial Hall). It was invented by Dr naismith. (Dr. naismith died on 1939 at the age of 78. )

At that time, the school asked him to invent an indoor sport within 14 days: it would neither harm the health of athletes nor damage sports facilities, but also have the spirit of sports ethics.

He recalled a children's game he played in Canada when he was a child, and based on this game, he wrote the earliest basketball 13 rules.

Because basketball is a project designed for indoor development, the original basketball court was located in the gymnasium. Dr. naismith drew a line on the floor of the gymnasium, 6 feet (1.82 meters) away from the wall, which constituted the basic competition venue. Then he nailed two wooden frames filled with peaches to the walls at both ends of the stadium, and the place 10 feet (3.05 meters) from the ground was used as the "goal".
