The History of Basketball Basketball is a very skilled sport. There are so many Aspects of the sport. Let’s take a look back at the history behind the sport. Basketball was created by an inventor named James Naismith. James was a physical education teacher at a school (YMCA) located in Springfield, Massachusetts. His boss, Dr Luther Gulick, gave him 14 days to come up with an indoor game for the students at the school to play since it was to cold to play outside. He was stuck, and the days were passing. He began to think about games he used to play when he was younger. He suddenly thought about a game he played where you try to toss a ball into a bucket. He began to think about more ways to make it better and he came up with taping it up high in the air. So, he used a basket and cut out the bottom so that the ball could go through. The children at YMCA traveled around the country sharing their game with other people. Later, basketball being very popular. Naismith was honored for the sport, but never actually witnessed the popularity the game has drawn. I am thankful for this sport because it‘s one of my most honored skills. -4-

Soccer By:Ebenezer Introduction
Soccer is a popular sport played majorly in latin American countries, this is sometimes called football, this usually is confused with the United States national sports Football as in where the player throws a spiral shaped ball to another player to try and get to the other player to come to the touchdown area without getting tackled. Soccer is very similar to basketball, where the person tries to get the ball down the court without getting the ball stolen from them.
Who?
Soccer was invented over time, people got an idea of a sport that they should play in their free time and there it was, back then there were no rules so, for example, there would be a more red card if someone voluntarily pushed/shoved another soccer player, this would be bad and harmful. That's why a man named “Ebenezer Cobb Morley� made the rules. Some common rules are no pushing or shoving, no going outside the boundaries limit, and no tripping.
When? Soccer is usually played on a sunny day, and in a stadium (typically you would use a smaller court for soccer). Although the game will not normally get postponed for rainy weather the player will normally play. The soccer field is treated with special grass equipment, for the player so swiftly play. This enables them to play the game more fairly, so fewer rules are broken. -1111
