Kansas History Web Sites History of Basketball Dr. James Naismith, Inventor of Basketball KU Basketball Program Founder Dr. James Naismith is known world-wide as the inventor of basketball. He was born in 1861 in Ramsay township, near Almonte, Ontario, Canada. The concept of basketball was born from Naismith's school days in the area where he played a simple child's game known as duck-on-a-rock outside his one-room schoolhouse. The game involved attempting to knock a "duck" off the top of a large rock by tossing another rock at it. Naismith went on to attend McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. After serving as McGill's Athletic Director, James Naismith moved on to the YMCA Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA in 1891, where the sport of basketball was born. In Springfield, Naismith was faced with the problem of finding a sport that was suitable for play inside during the Massachusetts winter for the students at the School for Christian Workers. Naismith wanted to create a game of skill for the students instead of one that relied solely on strength. He needed a game that could be played indoors in a relatively small space. The first game was played with a soccer ball and two peach baskets used as goals. Naismith joined the University of Kansas faculty in 1898, teaching physical education and being a chaplain. James Naismith devised a set of thirteen rules of basketball: The ball may be thrown in any direction with one or both hands.

History of USA Basketball USA Basketball Committees USA Basketball Staff Bios About USA Basketball FIBA History ... USA Basketball Active, Associate and Affiliate Members The United States joined the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) as a member in 1934 and it was the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) that FIBA first recognized as the organization that was responsible for USA teams in international competitions. Until 1974 when the Amateur Basketball Federation of the United States of America (ABAUSA) which later became USA Basektball was formed, various basketball organizations within the U.S. wrestled for control and recognition from FIBA and the U.S. Olympic Committee. A struggle for control of the USA's international teams developed in the 1960s between the AAU and other U.S. basketball organizations. It was in the early 1960s that an organization known as the Basketball Federation of the USA (BFUSA) was organized and began its push to be recognized by FIBA. Consisting of representatives from the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC), National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the National Federation of State High School Athletic Associations (NFSHSAA) and the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA), BFUSA continued to push for recognition and support in its effort to replace the AAU as the FIBA recognized basketball federation in the United States.

Alphabetical Recent NBA.com Quiz Anybody who wants to work at NBA Entertainment has to take a nifty little quiz to prove their basketball knowledge. I took it four years ago (I got the job!) and still remember a few of the more challenging questions. Here are a sampling of some of the questions from that test and few other mind-benders I've encountered recently. Good luck! NBA.com History Section After a bizarre two-year disappearance, NBA.com re-launched their history section in time for the 2002 Basketball Hall of Fame inductions. A wealth of great information returns. Audio of Wilt Chamberlain's 100-Point Game Gary M. Pomerantz's "Wilt 1962" tells the story of the night Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points in one game one of the most remarkable feats in sports history. What's especially nifty about this site promoting the book is that it features the actual radio broadcast of the fourth quarter, allowing you to relive Wilt's last 31 points bucket-by-bucket.
