Basketball       
Basketball was invented in the United States in 1891and quickly became popular. Basketball is the one of the major world sport developed in the United States. The official basketball rules for 1966-1967 describe the sport as follows:
 “Basketball is played by two teams of five players each. The purpose of each team is to throw the ball into it own basket and to prevent the other team from scoring. The ball may be thrown, rolled, dribbled in any direction, subject to restrictions laid down in… rules.” Basketball is usually played indoors but can be played level surfaces outdoors. More people watch basketball game than any other sport in the United States other than football. The Olympic games have included basketball since 1936. ~ Dribble means to bounce the ball on the floor. ~ Field Goal counts as two points when it scored in the basket before the 3-point line. ~ Foul is a violation mostly when a person pushes, holds, or charges
             It is made of leather, plastic, or any other like material inflated with air. A sideline marks each side of the court. Turnover happens when the offensive team loses possession without taking a shot. A good free throw counts as 1 point. They are divided into 16-minutes halves, each of which consists of 8-minutes quarters. Professional teams play 12-minutes quarters and have 1. ~ Press occurs when the opposing player guard offensive players closely. Outdoor courts are made of concrete, asphalt, or other solid material. ~ Free Throw is a shot toward a fouled player.
