Basketball is ateam sport, the objective being toshootaballthrough a horizontally positioned
basket to score points, while following a set ofrules. Usually, two teams of five players play on a
marked rectangularcourtwith a basket at each width end. Basketball is one of the world's most
popular and widely viewed sports.[1]
A regulation basketball hoop consists of a rim 18 inches (46 cm) in diameter and 10 feet (3.0 m) high
mounted to abackboard. A team can score afield goalby shooting the ball through the basket during
regular play. A field goal scores two points for the shooting team if a player is touching or closer to
the basket than thethree-point line, and three points (known commonly as a 3 pointerorthree) if the
player is behind the three-point line. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins, but
additional time (overtime) may be issued when the game ends with a draw. The ball can be
advanced on the court by bouncing it while walking or running (dribbling) or throwing (passing) it to a
team mate. It is a violation to move without dribbling the ball (travelling), tocarryit, or to hold the ball
with both hands then resume dribbling (double dribble).
Numerousviolationsare called "fouls." Disruptive physical contact (apersonal foul) is penalized, and
afree throwis usually awarded to an offensive player if he is fouled while shooting the ball.
Atechnical foulmay also be issued when certain infractions occur, most commonly
forunsportsmanlike conducton the part of a player orcoach. A technical foul gives the opposing
team a free throw, and the opposing team also retains possession of the ball.
Basketball has evolved many commonly used techniques of shooting, passing, dribbling, and
rebounding, as well as specializedplayer positionsand offensive and defensive structures (player
positioning) and techniques. Typically, the tallest members of a team will play "center", "power
forward" or"small forward" positions, while shorter players or those who possess the best ball
handling skills and speed play "point guard" or"shooting guard".
While competitive basketball is carefully regulated, numerousvariations of basketballhave
developed for casual play. Competitive basketball is primarily an indoor sport played on a carefully
marked and maintainedbasketball court, but less regulated variations are often played outdoors in
both inner city and remote areas.

The first basketball court:Springfield College
In early December 1891,Canadian AmericanDr.James Naismith,[2]
a physical education professor
and instructor at the International Young Men's Christian Association Training School[3]
(YMCA)
(today,Springfield College) inSpringfield, Massachusetts, USA), was trying to keep his gym class
active on a rainy day. He sought a vigorous indoor game to keep his students occupied and at proper
levels of fitness during the longNew Englandwinters. After rejecting other ideas as either too rough
or poorly suited to walled-ingymnasiums, he wrote the basicrulesand nailed apeachbasket onto a
10-foot (3.05 m) elevated track. In contrast with modern basketball nets, this peach basket retained
its bottom, and balls had to be retrieved manually after each "basket" or point scored; this proved
inefficient, however, so the bottom of the basket was removed,[4]
allowing the balls to be poked out
with a longdoweleach time.
Basketball was originally played with asoccer ball. The first balls made specifically for basketball
were brown, and it was only in the late 1950s thatTony Hinkle, searching for a ball that would be
more visible to players and spectators alike, introduced the orange ball that is now in common use.
Dribbling was not part of the original game except for the "bounce pass" to teammates. Passing the
ball was the primary means of ball movement. Dribbling was eventually introduced but limited by the
asymmetric shape of early balls. Dribbling only became a major part of the game around the 1950s,
as manufacturing improved the ball shape.
The peach baskets were used until 1906 when they were finally replaced by metal hoops with
backboards. A further change was soon made, so the ball merely passed through. Whenever a
person got the ball in the basket, his team would gain a point. Whichever team got the most points
won the game.[5]
The baskets were originally nailed to the mezzanine balcony of the playing court,
but this proved impractical when spectators on the balcony began to interfere with shots. The
backboard was introduced to prevent this interference; it had the additional effect of allowing rebound
shots.[6]

he was nervous about the new game he had invented, which incorporated rules from a children's
game called "Duck on a Rock", as many had failed before it. Naismith called the new game "Basket
Ball".[7]
The first official game was played in theYMCA gymnasium in Albany, New Yorkon January
20, 1892 with nine players. The game ended at 10; the shot was made from 25 feet (7.6 m), on a
court just half the size of a present-dayStreetballorNational Basketball Association(NBA) court. By
18971898 teams of five became standard.
College basketball
The 1899 University of Kansas basketball team, with James Naismith at the back, right.
Basketball's early adherents were dispatched to YMCAs throughout the United States, and it quickly
spread through the USA and Canada. By 1895, it was well established at several women's high
schools. While the YMCA was responsible for initially developing and spreading the game, within a
decade it discouraged the new sport, as rough play and rowdy crowds began to detract from theYMCA's primary mission. However, other amateur sports clubs, colleges, and professional clubs
quickly filled the void. In the years beforeWorld War I, theAmateur Athletic Unionand
theIntercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States(forerunner of theNCAA) vied for control
over the rules for the game. The first pro league, the National Basketball League, was formed in
1898 to protect players from exploitation and to promote a less rough game. This league only lasted
five years.
Dr. James Naismith was instrumental in establishingcollege basketball. His colleague C.O. Beamis
fielded the first college basketball team just a year after the Springfield YMCA game at thesuburbanPittsburghGeneva College.
[8]Naismith himself later coached at theUniversity of
Kansasfor six years, before handing the reins to renowned coachForrest "Phog" Allen. Naismith's
discipleAmos Alonzo Staggbrought basketball to theUniversity of Chicago, whileAdolph Rupp, a
student of Naismith's at Kansas, enjoyed great success as coach at theUniversity of Kentucky. On
February 9, 1895, the first intercollegiate 5-on-5 game was played atHamline Universitybetween
Hamline and the School of Agriculture, which was affiliated with theUniversity of Minnesota.[9][10]
The
School of Agriculture won in a 93 game.

Universitybegan sponsoring men's games. In 1905, frequent injuries on the footballfield
promptedPresidentTheodore Rooseveltto suggest that colleges form a governing body, resulting in
the creation of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States (IAAUS). In 1910, that
body would change its name to theNational Collegiate Athletic Association(NCAA). The first
Canadian interuniversity basketball game was played at theYMCAinKingston, Ontarioon February
6, 1904, whenMcGill UniversityvisitedQueen's University. McGill won 97 in overtime; the score
was 77 at the end of regulation play, and a ten-minute overtime period settled the outcome. A good
turnout of spectators watched the game.[11]
The first men's national championship tournament, the National Association of Intercollegiate
Basketball tournament, which still exists as theNational Association of Intercollegiate
Athletics(NAIA)tournament, was organized in 1937. The first national championship for NCAA
teams, theNational Invitation Tournament(NIT) in New York, was organized in 1938; theNCAA
national tournamentwould begin one year later. College basketball was rocked by gambling
scandals from 1948 to 1951, when dozens of players from top teams were implicated inmatch
fixingandpoint shaving. Partially spurred by an association with cheating, the NIT lost support to the
NCAA tournament.

Before widespread school district consolidation, most American high schools were far smaller than
their present-day counterparts. During the first decades of the 20th century, basketball quickly
became the ideal interscholastic sport due to its modest equipment and personnel requirements. In
the days before widespread television coverage of professional and college sports, the popularity of
high school basketball was unrivaled in many parts of America. Perhaps the most legendary of high
school teams was Indiana'sFranklin Wonder Five, which took the nation by storm during the 1920s,
dominating Indiana basketball and earning national recognition.
Today virtually every high school in the United States fields a basketball team
invarsitycompetition.[12]
Basketball's popularity remains high, both in rural areas where they carry
the identification of the entire community, as well as at some larger schools known for their
basketball teams where many players go on to participate at higher levels of competition after
graduation. In the 200304 season, 1,002,797 boys and girls represented their schools in
interscholastic basketball competition, according to theNational Federation of State High School

Associations. The states ofIllinois,IndianaandKentuckyare particularly well known for their
residents' devotion to high school basketball, commonly calledHoosier Hysteriain Indiana; the
critically acclaimed filmHoosiersshows high school basketball's depth of meaning to these
communities.
There is currently no national tournament to determine a national high school champion. The most
serious effort was the National Interscholastic Basketball Tournament at the University of
Chicagofrom 1917 to 1930. The event was organized byAmos Alonzo Staggand sent invitations to
state champion teams. The tournament started out as a mostly Midwest affair but grew. In 1929 it
had 29 state champions. Faced with opposition from theNational Federation of State High School
AssociationsandNorth Central Association of Colleges and Schoolsthat bore a threat of the schools
losing their accreditation the last tournament was in 1930. The organizations said they were
concerned that the tournament was being used to recruit professional players from the prep
ranks.[13]
The tournament did not invite minority schools or private/parochial schools.
The National Catholic Interscholastic Basketball Tournament ran from 1924 to 1941 at Loyola
University.[14]
The National Catholic Invitational Basketball Tournament from 1954 to 1978 played at a
series of venues, includingCatholic University,GeorgetownandGeorge Mason.[15]
The National
Interscholastic Basketball Tournament for Black High Schools was held from 1929 to 1942
atHampton Institute.[16]
The National Invitational Interscholastic Basketball Tournament was held
from 1941 to 1967 starting out atTuskegee Institute. Following a pause duringWorld War IIit
resumed atTennessee State Collegein Nashville. The basis for the champion dwindled after 1954
whenBrown v. Board of Educationbegan an integration of schools. The last tournaments were held
atAlabama State Collegefrom 1964 to 1967.[17]

Teams abounded throughout the 1920s. There were hundreds of men'sprofessional
basketballteams in towns and cities all over the United States, and little organization of the
professional game. Players jumped from team to team and teams played in armories and smoky
dance halls. Leagues came and went.Barnstormingsquads such as theOriginal Celticsand two all-
African American teams, theNew York Renaissance Five("Rens") and the (still existing)Harlem
Globetrottersplayed up to two hundred games a year on their national tours.
In 1946, theBasketball Association of America(BAA) was formed. The first game was played
inToronto, Ontario, Canada between theToronto HuskiesandNew York Knickerbockerson
November 1, 1946. Three seasons later, in 1949, the BAA merged with theNational Basketball
Leagueto form theNational Basketball Association(NBA). By the 1950s, basketball had become a
major college sport, thus paving the way for a growth of interest in professional basketball. In 1959,
abasketball hall of famewas founded inSpringfield, Massachusetts, site of the first game. Its rosters
include the names of great players, coaches, referees and people who have contributed significantly
to the development of the game. The hall of fame has people who have accomplished many goals in
their career in basketball. An upstart organization, theAmerican Basketball Association, emerged in
1967 and briefly threatened the NBA's dominance until theABA-NBA mergerin 1976. Today the
NBA is the top professional basketball league in the world in terms of popularity, salaries, talent, and
level of competition.
The NBA has featured many famous players, includingGeorge Mikan, the first dominating "big man";
ball-handling wizardBob Cousyand defensive geniusBill Russellof theBoston Celtics;Wilt
Chamberlain, who originally played for the barnstormingHarlem Globetrotters; all-around starsOscar
RobertsonandJerry West; more recent big menKareem Abdul-Jabbar,Shaquille O'NealandKarl
Malone; playmakerJohn Stockton; crowd-pleasing forwardJulius Erving; European starsDirk
NowitzkiandDraen Petroviand the three players who many credit with ushering the professional
game to its highest level of popularity:Larry Bird,Earvin "Magic" Johnson, andMichael Jordan. In
2001, the NBA formed a developmental league, theNBDL. As of 2012, the league has 16 teams.

TheInternational Basketball Federationwas formed in 1932 by eight founding nations:
Argentina,Czechoslovakia, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Portugal, Romania and Switzerland. At this time,
the organization only oversaw amateur players. Its acronym, derived from the French Fdration
Internationale de Basketball Amateur, was thus "FIBA". Men's Basketball was firstincludedat the
Berlin1936 Summer Olympics, although a demonstration tournament was held in 1904. The United
States defeated Canada in the first final, played outdoors. This competition has usually been
dominated by the United States, whose team has won all but three titles, the first loss in a
controversial final game inMunichin1972against the Soviet Union. In 1950 the first FIBA World
Championshipfor men was held in Argentina. Three years later, the firstFIBA World Championship
for Womenwas held inChile. Women's basketball was added to the Olympics in 1976, which were
held inMontreal, Canada with teams such as theSoviet Union,BrazilandAustraliarivaling
theAmericansquads.
FIBAdropped the distinction between amateur and professional players in 1989, and in 1992,
professional players played for the first time in the Olympic Games. The United States' dominance
continued with the introduction of theirDream Team. However, with developing programs elsewhere,
other national teams started to beat the United States. A team made entirely of NBA players finished
sixth in the 2002 World Championships inIndianapolis,
behindYugoslavia,Argentina,Germany,New ZealandandSpain. In the2004 Athens Olympics, the
United States suffered its first Olympic loss while using professional players, falling toPuerto Rico(in
a 19-point loss) andLithuaniain group games, and being eliminated in the semifinals byArgentina. It
eventually won the bronze medal defeating Lithuania, finishing behind Argentina andItaly. In 2006, in
the World Championship of Japan, the United States advanced to the semifinals but were defeated
byGreeceby 10195. In the bronze medal game it beat teamArgentinaand finished 3rd behind
Greece and Spain. After the disappointments of 2002 through 2006, the U.S. regrouped,
reestablishing themselves as the dominant international team behind the "Redeem Team", which
won gold at the2008 Olympics, and the so-called "B-Team", which won gold at the2010 FIBA World
Championshipin Turkey despite featuring no players from the 2008 squad.
The all-tournament teams at the2002and2006FIBA World Championships, respectively held in
Indianapolis and Japan, demonstrate the globalization of the game equally dramatically. Only one
member of either team was American, namelyCarmelo Anthonyin 2006. The 2002 team featured
Nowitzki, Ginobili, Yao,Peja Stojakovicof Yugoslavia (now ofSerbia), andPero Cameronof New
Zealand. Ginobili also made the 2006 team; the other members were Anthony, Gasol,
hisSpanishteammateJorge GarbajosaandTheodoros PapaloukasofGreece. The only players on
either team to never have joined the NBA are Cameron and Papaloukas. The all-tournament team
from the2010 editionin Turkey featured four NBA playersMVPKevin Durantof Team USA and
theOklahoma City Thunder,Linas KleizaofLithuaniaand theToronto Raptors,Luis Scolaof
Argentina and theHouston Rockets, andHedo TrkoluofTurkeyand thePhoenix Suns. The only
non-NBA player was Serbia'sMilo Teodosi. The strength of international Basketball is evident in

the fact that Team USA won none of the three world championships held between 1998 and 2006,
with Serbia (then known as Yugoslavia) winning in 1998 and 2002 and Spain in 2006.
Worldwide, basketball tournaments are held for boys and girls of all age levels. The global popularity
of the sport is reflected in the nationalities represented in the NBA. Players from all six inhabitedcontinents currently play in the NBA. Top international players began coming into the NBA in the mid-
1990s, including CroatiansDraen PetroviandToni Kuko, SerbianVlade Divac,
LithuaniansArvydas Sabonisandarnas Mariulionisand GermanDetlef Schrempf.
In the Philippines, thePhilippine Basketball Association's first game was played on April 9, 1975 at
theAraneta ColiseuminCubao,Quezon City. Philippines. It was founded as a "rebellion" of several
teams from the now-defunct Manila Industrial and Commercial Athletic Association which was tightly
controlled by the Basketball Association of the Philippines (now defunct), the then-FIBA recognized
national association. Nine teams from the MICAA participated in the league's first season thatopened on April 9, 1975. TheNBLis Australia's pre-eminent men's professional basketball league.
The league commenced in1979, playing a winter season (AprilSeptember) and did so until the
completion of the 20th season in1998. The1998/99season, which commenced only months later,
was the first season after the shift to the current summer season format (OctoberApril). This shift
was an attempt to avoid competing directly againstAustralia's various football codes. It features 8
teams from around Australia and one in New Zealand. A few players includingLuc Longley,Andrew
Gaze,Shane Heal,Chris AnsteyandAndrew Bogutmade it big internationally, becoming poster
figures for the sport in Australia. TheWomen's National Basketball Leaguebegan in 1981.

Berenson's freshmen played the sophomore class in the first women's intercollegiate
basketball game atSmith College, March 21, 1893.[20]
The same year,Mount HolyokeandSophie
Newcomb College(coached byClara Gregory Baer) women began playing basketball. By 1895, the
game had spread to colleges across the country, including Wellesley,Vassar, andBryn Mawr. The
first intercollegiate women's game was on April 4, 1896. Stanfordwomen playedBerkeley, 9-on-9,
ending in a 21 Stanford victory.
Women's basketball development was more structured than that for men in the early years. In 1905,
the Executive Committee on Basket Ball Rules (National Women's Basketball Committee) was
created by theAmerican Physical Education Association.[21]
These rules called for six to nine players
per team and 11 officials. TheInternational Women's Sports Federation(1924) included a women's
basketball competition. 37 women's high school varsity basketball or state tournaments were held by
1925. And in 1926, the Amateur Athletic Union backed the firstnational women's basketball
championship, complete with men's rules.[21]
TheEdmonton Grads, a touring Canadian women's
team based inEdmonton, Alberta, operated between 1915 and 1940. The Grads toured all over
North America, and were exceptionally successful. They posted a record of 522 wins and only 20
losses over that span, as they met any team which wanted to challenge them, funding their tours
from gate receipts.[22]
The Grads also shone on several exhibition trips to Europe, and won four
consecutive exhibition Olympics tournaments, in 1924, 1928, 1932, and 1936; however, women's
basketball was not an official Olympic sport until 1976. The Grads' players were unpaid, and had to
remain single. The Grads' style focused on team play, without overly emphasizing skills of individual
players. The first women'sAAUAll-America team was chosen in 1929.[21]Women's industrial leagues
sprang up throughout the United States, producing famous athletes, includingBabe Didriksonof
theGolden Cyclones, and theAll American Red Heads Team, which competed against men's teams,
using men's rules. By 1938, the women's national championship changed from a three-court game
totwo-court game with six players per team.[21]
The NBA-backedWomen's National Basketball Association(WNBA) began in 1997. Though it had
shaky attendance figures, several marquee players (Lisa Leslie,Diana Taurasi, andCandace
Parkeramong others) have helped the league's popularity and level of competition.
Otherprofessional women's basketballleagues in the United States, such as theAmerican
Basketball League (1996-1998), have folded in part because of the popularity of theWNBA. The
WNBA has been looked at by many as a niche league. However, the league has recently taken steps
forward. In June 2007, the WNBA signed a contract extension withESPN. The new television deal
runs from 2009 to 2016. Along with this deal, came the first ever rights fees to be paid to a women's
professional sports league. Over the eight years of the contract, "millions and millions of dollars" will
be "dispersed to the league's teams." The WNBA gets more viewers on national television
broadcasts (413,000) than bothMajor League Soccer(253,000)[23]
and theNHL(310,732).[24]
