The rules of basketball


Rules are different in every country but still contain similar rules.America have different rules which are more advanced as National Basketball Association in america have recreated their own rules to suit american players.Outside of America everyone esle uses Fiba Rules.

How rules were created for basketball?

In 1891 James Naismith created the rules that we use now,these rules are,
1) No running with the ball
2)No contact on player with the ball,no rough play.Which is now called a foul
3)whoever through ball out of play does not get the ball next
4) The side with the most 'goals' scored wins.
A goal was known as a basketball in 1891.
5)No dribbling only passing which fiba decided to change.

FIBA added 3 pointers,shot clocks,slam dunks,number of
 fouls allowed per player,dribbling,allowed goal tending to be legal.

My own knowledge but also with help from http://www.ehow.com/facts_5641241_were-rules-basketball-first-invented_.html
