The world's greatest sport ever. But of course, it hasn't been around since the world began. No, somebody had to have invented it. And that somebody would be James Naismith.
Born in Almonte, Ontario, Canada, this Canadian Gym Teacher and Physician would soon be the founder of basketball. It all started in December of 1891. Naismith was teaching in Springfield, Massachusetts and was asked by Luther H. Gulick, the Headmaster of the school for Christian Works to make a new sport. The main idea of the sport was mainly to be played inside when it was too cold to go outside. The new sport also had to keep athletes in their top conditions between the baseball and football season. Naismith began to work. The first game-ball was a soccer ball.
The first baskets were peach baskets that Naismith cleverly thought of hanging on the wall. From there, the legacy of basketball began. Originally, there was 9 men to each team, but the objective was still the same; to pass the ball to other players on your team and put the ball in the opposing team's net, or basket back then. From there, basketball caught on like a wildfire.
During 1885 highschools and colleges began to adopt the game, and by 1898, the first Pro. League was founded. After the first game played, Naismith drafted 13 rules and regulations, but many more were yet to come. The hoops we know today were invented in 1906. They were steel, with a net hanging from its rim.
籃球被譽爲世界上最偉大的運動之一。籃球的發明者是James Naismith。1891年，James Naismith在馬塞諸塞當體育老師的時候，校長讓他爲基督教想出一種運動，這種運動一定要在室內進行，運動員在比賽時還要有棒球和足球比賽時的激情。經過思考，他想出了一個辦法：在牆上掛網子，然後把球扔向這個用網子做的籃子裏，籃球運動由此而生。最初，參加籃球比賽的每個隊伍有9個隊員，比賽規則是：球員把球傳給本隊隊員，然後將球投向對方的筐子裏。直到1898年，第一支專業籃球隊成立。

In 1895, William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decided to blend elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than basketball. He created the game of Volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrowed the net from tennis, and raised it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man's head.
During a demonstration game, someone remarked to Morgan that the players seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps "volleyball" would be a more descriptive name for the sport.
On July 7, 1896 at Springfield College the first game of "volleyball" was played. In 1900, a special ball was designed for the sport
