Search Inventors Basketball - James Naismith (1861-1939) Photo: Y.M.C.A. training school [Springfield College], Springfield, Mass. - home of basketball. By Mary Bellis James Naismith was the Canadian physical education instructor who invented basketball in 1891. James Naismith was born in Almonte, Ontario and educated at McGill University and Presbyterian Cllege in Montreal. He was the physical education teacher at McGill University (1887 to 1890) and at Springfield College in Springfield, Massachusetts (1890 to 1895). At Springfield College (which was then the Y.M.C.A. training school), James Naismith, under the direction of American phys-ed specialist Luther Halsey Gulick, invented the indoor sport of basketball. The first formal rules were devised in 1892. Initially, players dribbled a soccer ball up and down a court of unspecified dimensions. Points were earned by landing the ball in a peach basket. Iron hoops and a hammock-style basket were introduced in 1893. Another decade passed, however, before the innovation of open-ended nets put an end to the practice of manually retrieving the ball from the basket each time a goal was scored.

Other Resources History U.S. teams demonstrated basketball at the Olympics in 1904, 1924, and 1928. When the game became an official Olympic sport in 1932, its inventor, James Naismith, was given the honor of tossing the opening jump ball for the first game. The United States completely dominated Olympic basketball competition through 1964, winning 54 consecutive games, often by as many as 50 or 60 points. In 1968, though, most of the top college players passed up the Olympic trials because they didn't want to jeopardize their professional careers, and Yugoslavia was generally favored to win the gold medal over the young, little-known U. S. team. However, the Americans extended the winning streak to 63 games, beating Yugoslavia, 65-50, for the championship. The streak went to 71 games in 1972, but it ended in the Gold Medal game against the Soviet Union, amidst much furore. The U. S. led, 50-49, with three seconds to play. Inbounding the ball from under their own basket, the Soviets twice threw it the length of the court without scoring, but both times the officials ruled that the scoreboard clock had to be reset. On the third try, the court-length pass succeeded and a Soviet player scored the winning basket. The U. S. appealed the decision but lost, and the team unanimously voted not to accept the silver medal.

Rollins College Athletics Alumni Office NCAA ... Quick Facts Men's Basketball CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY First listed basketball game at Rollins College. Rollins defeated the Orlando Rifles 9-8. Team posts a 3-0 record that also included 9-2 and 6-0 victories over Stetson. Rollins defeated Stetson 14-13 to claim state title. Sam Sadler was the team captain and Chicago White Sox pitcher Pat Flaherty was the coach. Dr. Thurston Adams directs the Tars to a 12-5 record and a post-season appearance. Basketball disbanded at Rollins due to World War II. After nearly a decade without varsity basketball, the Tars reinstate basketball at the varsity level with Jack McDowell serving as the head coach. The lightly regarded Tars pull a major upset on December 8, 1950 as they edge mighty Miami 59-58. A set shot by Pete Fay at the buzzer gives Rollins the victory. Despite an 8-13 overall record, the Tars earn a spot in the NAIA post-season tournament in Dan Nyimicz’s first season as head coach. Dick Bezemer averages 17.9 points per game and is honored as a first team NAIA All-America selection

Despite the handicap, the Crimson athletes showed wonderful tenacity and were in the van at many stages." Spring, 1921
