Dr. James Nasimith was the Creator, a Canadian coach
He created the game becuase YMCA wanted players to train and play indoors in any sport that Nasimith could come up with. So Nasimith created "basketball" and included the 13 original rules. He decided to use a soccer ball first becuase he thought small balls were too dangerous. In order for the players to not guard the goal easily, he suspended the goal 10 feet from the ground. The first version had no backboard or hole, so every time you made a shot, it would be stuck in the goal. He eventually added the board, and the sport became popular.
Invented: 1891 in New England ( sorry I said Canada my bad )
Inventor: Dr. James Nasimith References :
