| Basketball is a young game. In the year of 1891, a famous college was having some trouble with its boy students. The weather was bad. They couldn"t play outside. So they were unhappy. Sometimes they even got into fights. Finally, some teachers asked Dr. Naisimth to invent a game so that the students might have something to play in doors. Dr. Naisimth thought for a few days and invented a kind of ball game. It was a fast, exciting game with much moving and passing of the ball. It was played between two teams. In order to make a score, the ball had to be thrown into a basket ten feet above the floor on the wall. At first, Dr. Naisimth had planned to have the ball thrown into a box. As he couldn"t find boxes of the right size, he had to use fruit basket instead. That is how the game got its name basketball. The history of this game is over 100 years. | ||||||
