Feedback

Basketball was created in 1891 to keep students indoors during winter.

Naismith, a Canadian physical education instructor, authored the original game.

Early games used peach baskets mounted on the gym balcony.

Naismith authored 13 rules to govern the new game.

A goal occurred when the ball was thrown into the basket and remained therein.

Naismith divided the class into two teams of nine players.

The game featured fifteen-minute halves with a short rest between.

Originally, a ladder and janitor were needed to fetch the ball.

The US Army and YMCA played key roles in introducing the game abroad.

Three straight fouls by one side counted as a goal for the opponents.
