Basketball
Facts, tips and ideas about Basketball — and how to find people for it.
Did you know?
Basketball was invented in 1891 with peach baskets. They still had bottoms — someone had to fetch the ball after each score.
Tip
Basketball tip: call out when you're open. Streetball runs on communication — whoever talks gets the ball.
Inspiration
No hoop is too high for someone who just keeps shooting. The next shot knows nothing about the last.
A small challenge
Challenge: head to the nearest streetball hoop and play 21. The easiest way into a game with strangers is to just start shooting.
Break the ice
"Who was your idol when you started playing?" On the court, everyone loves telling that one.
