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.

I play badminton, volleyball, soccer etc. Oo, lahat na. Pero, basketball is the sport I usually play during leisure. Kapag nagsawa sa kakatitig sa tv o computer, ito ang hinahanap ko. Uhm, bakit? Kasi ganito…

Basketball, commonly, is a fun past time for anyone, mapa-bata o matanda. Masasabi din na isa itong form of exercise. I have same interest with my friends and isa na nga dito ang paglalaro nito. It is a best thing you can do with your peers while burning calories. Hahaha! Pero, totoo ‘yun. J

One thing I love in basketball eh, pwede mo itong laruin ng may kasama, one-on-one o isang buong team talaga, pwede din na ikaw lang mag-isa. You can really fight the boredom by playing this. Madami ka pang matutunan. Bukod sa makakakita ka ng iba’t ibang strategies and styles sa paglalaro tulad ng pagiging magaling na shooter, passer, defensive player, playmaker and dunker, may good attitudes ka pa na ma-eenhance. Kailangan kasi dito ang teamwork, sportsmanship, etc.  Mas mabuti na din ang maglaro nito kaysa sa maghapon kang maglaro ng computer games. Basta, avoid having a dirty games. J
