There were no rules during the first-ever game of basketball, and Naismith said it turned into a “free for all” and that he was “afraid the players would kill each other.” One player was knocked out, one dislocated his shoulder, and several ended up with black eyes. The students were eager to play again, but Naismith wouldn’t allow it until he drafted a set of 13 game rules. Players were prohibited from running with the ball but were allowed to throw it or bat it with their hands. This kept them from tackling each other and reduced the risk of injury. Dribbling was introduced in 1901, and by that time players were using a specially designed basketball manufactured by the Spalding Company.
Why did Naismith need to set rules for the game?
The Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) was established in 1996 but hasn’t come close to matching the popularity of the NBA yet.
Women began playing basketball in 1892, but they were expected to compete while dressed in floor-length dresses and petticoats. Stanford college banned women’s basketball in 1899 “for the good of the students’ health” and for “the unpleasant publicity accompanying the contests.” Women’s basketball was not regularly played at U.S. high schools and colleges until after the 1972 Title IX law was signed by President Richard Nixon. The law prevents schools from discriminating on the basis of sex and led to the creation of women’s sports teams (including basketball) in colleges and high schools throughout the United States. The game that began with two peach baskets and a soccer ball in a gymnasium in Massachusetts has certainly made its mark on the world.

An extreme sport is a popular term for certain activities perceived as having a high level of inherent danger. ...... . These activities often involve speed, height and a high level of physical exertion.
After an 1892 article about basketball appeared in a magazine, the new sport spread like wildfire throughout the United States. The New York Times wrote an article about its popularity just one year after its invention.
In 1936, basketball was introduced as a men’s Olympic event in Berlin, Germany. Teams from 23 countries competed in games played in an outdoor tennis stadium, and the United States played in the rain to win the gold medal.
Despite the game’s ongoing popularity in the United States, low fan attendance plagued professional men’s basketball for most of its history. For that reason, Naismith’s original rules were modified on numerous occasions to make the game more exciting and appealing to fans. Even after two leagues merged to form the 17-team National Basketball Association (NBA) in 1949, the future of the sport was questionable. It wasn’t until 1980 when games were regularly broadcast on cable television, that basketball’s popularity exploded.
How did the basketball become very popular around the world?

The head of the physical education department at the International YMCA Training School (now called Springfield College) in Massachusetts, issued a challenge to his graduate students in 1891. He asked them to create a fast-paced, easy-to-learn game that could be played in the gymnasium during the winter months. The game was created by 31-year-old Canadian James Naismith required two teams of nine players to face off against one another. To score points for their team, a player had to land a soccer ball into a cardboard box. After the school’s janitor was unable to find cardboard boxes, Naismith used wooden peach baskets and mounted them at each end of the gymnasium. He called his new game basketball, and wooden baskets were used until 1903 when a Rhode Island company developed an iron hoop with an attached net.
