College basketball in 1947

The history of basketball has 130 years. We will talk about who invented basketball and how, as well as about the periods and stages of its formation as a popular sport.

Who Invented Basketball?

James Naismith, who taught at the Youth Christian Association (YCA) American College in Springfield in the late 19th century. Naismith was looking for new way get college students involved in sports. In those days, students were only engaged in gymnastic exercises, which bored them very quickly. James Naismith has developed a new outdoor game to spice up boring gymnastics.

The first basketball match took place on December 21, 1891. Naismith fixed two fruit baskets to the railing of the balconies, divided the students into two teams, and gave them a homemade ball. The goal of the game was the same as in modern basketball - to throw the ball into the basket. The team that threw the ball more times won.

The game differed radically from modern basketball. Initially, there was no dribbling, and the players simply threw it to each other, moving a short distance across the court, on which there was practically no marking. To get the ball out of the basket, the players had to climb a ladder.

When did the first rules appear?

In 1892. Naismith and the students were satisfied with the game with practically no rules only at first. Over time, there was a need for a clear regulation of the matches, because sometimes even the fans on the balcony intervened in the course of the game - they caught the ball and threw it into the basket. In 1892, James Naismith compiled the first 13-point set of basketball rules. In the same year, physical education teacher Senda Berenson of a private women's college in Northampton, Massachusetts, adapted the rules for women's teams.

The new rules were revised and supplemented after the very first matches. The fans continued to "hooligan" and forced Naismith to come up with a shield that protected the basket. In 1893, the fruit basket went down in history, giving way to the usual mesh ring. A year later, the first official basketball rules were approved, which were valid throughout the United States.

History of the development of basketball

In the United States, basketball was distributed to educational institutions as an element of physical education lessons. Even before the beginning of the 20th century, basketball appeared in Canada, where college and university students also liked it. James Naismith promoted basketball in the United States, and the MXA college, where the first game took place, regulated the rules of the game for about the first ten years of basketball's existence.

Later, two organizations picked up the baton at the MXA College at once: the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the Amateur Athletic Union. They were responsible for popularizing basketball in America. Already in 1898, supporters of the new sport tried to create the first official association of teams - the National Basketball League. However, this organization lasted only five years, and in the meantime basketball itself got out of bounds. North America.

When did basketball go international?

Closer to the twenties of the XX century. Basketball first appeared in Asian countries with which the United States had active trade and diplomatic relations. The first basketball teams outside the United States appeared in Japan, China and the Philippines. Then basketball appeared in South America and Europe.

A special role in the international popularization of basketball was played by summer Olympic Games in St. Louis in 1904, in which the Americans staged an exhibition tournament among teams from several nearby cities. Later, at the 1924 and 1928 Olympics, basketball was also introduced as a demonstration sport.

In the 1920s, national basketball federations appeared in dozens of countries around the world. At the same time, the first official international meetings were held. For example, in 1919 basketball tournament between the army teams of the USA, France and Italy, and in 1923 France hosted the first international women's basketball tournament in the history of basketball with the participation of teams from the USA, England and Italy.

The International Basketball Federation (FIBA) was established in Geneva in 1932, and eight countries became its first participants: Argentina, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Portugal, Romania, Sweden and Czechoslovakia. Basketball was recognized by the International Olympic Committee in 1935 olympic view sports, and in 1936 in Berlin the first ever set of Olympic medals on basketball. The first Olympiad was won by the founders of basketball: the US team beat Canada in the final (19:8). During the Olympics in Berlin, the first international congress FIBA, which adopted the unified international rules of basketball.

When did basketball appear in Russia?

The first basketball teams in Russia appeared in 1906 on the basis of the Mayak Sports Society in St. Petersburg. Before the October Revolution of 1917, basketball in Russia developed mainly in the capital of the Russian Empire, St. Petersburg.

In the early twenties of the 20th century, basketball was introduced into the curriculum for students of the Main Military School of Physical Education of Workers and into the program of the Moscow Institute physical education. In 1923 the first championship of the USSR was played. Since 1934, the USSR basketball championship has been held annually.

In 1959, the USSR men's team took part in the World Championship for the first time and won all the matches there, but was stripped of gold medals for refusing to play against the Taiwanese team. The USSR national team did not play with Taiwan for political reasons - because of its enmity with communist China. In 1976, the USSR women's team won the first women's basketball tournament at the Olympic Games.

History of professional basketball

At the beginning of the 20th century, the first professional teams. There were even so-called "tour" teams that managed to play 200 matches throughout the country in a year. The most famous of them are the Original Celtics, the New York Renaissance and the Harlem Globtrotters. The Harlem Globetrotters exhibition team still exists to this day and as "ambassadors good will from USA performs worldwide.

Professional basketball began in 1935 with the founding of the Midwest Basketball Conference. Two years later, the organization grew into the National Basketball League (NBL), funded by the corporations General Electric, Firestone and Goodyear. Initially, the NBL had 13 corporate teams, but later it grew to 38 clubs. The Basketball Association of America (BAA) formed in 1946 with 16 teams. In 1949, the NBL and the BAA merged to form the most popular basketball league in modern times, the National Basketball Association (NBA).

Basketball has been part of the Olympic Games program since 1936 (the inventor of the game, James Naismith, was there as a guest). Regular world basketball championships for men have been held since 1950, for women since 1953, and European championships since 1935.

International club competitions are held in Europe: Euroleague, Eurocup, FIBA ​​Challenge Cup.

This game has reached its greatest development in the USA: the championship of the National Basketball Association (NBA) has been the strongest national club tournament in the world for more than 50 years. Basketball is considered national view sports in Lithuania (see LBL).

    In the winter of 1891, students at the Youth Christian Association College in Springfield, Massachusetts, were forced to gymnastic exercises, considered at that time the only means of introducing young people to sports, it was very boring in physical education classes. The monotony of such occupations had to be put to an end.

    A way out of a seemingly dead-end situation was found by college teacher James Naismith. On December 21, 1891, he tied two peach baskets to the balcony railing. sports hall and, dividing eighteen students into two teams, offered them a game, the meaning of which was to throw large quantity balls into the opponents ' basket .

    The idea of ​​this game originated in his school years, when children played the old game "duck-on-a-rock" ("Duck on a rock"). The meaning of this game, popular at that time, was as follows: throwing a small stone, it was necessary to hit the top of another stone, larger in size, with it.

    The game, called "basketball", only remotely resembled a modern sport. There was no dribbling, the players only threw it to each other, standing still, and then tried to throw it into the basket, and only with both hands from below or from the chest, and after a successful throw, one of the players climbed onto a ladder attached to the wall and removed the ball from the basket . Dr. Naismith's goal was to create a team game that could involve both a large number of involved, and his invention fully met this task.

    In 1892, the teacher of physical education at Smith College in Northampton (Massachusetts) Senda Berenson developed the first rules for women's basketball.

    Formation

    The first stages of the development of basketball are associated with its distribution in US educational institutions - schools and colleges. Even before the beginning of the 20th century, the game quickly gained some popularity not only in the United States, but also in Canada. Basketball's forefather, the Youth Christian Association College, was initially active in regulating and promoting the game, but a decade later, management concluded that this activity hindered the institution's core mission and decided to distance itself from the new sport. In 1898, the first attempt was made to create a professional association - the National Basketball League - but it lasted only five years. After the First World War, two amateur organizations assumed responsibility for rules and governance: the National Collegiate Sports Association and the Amateur Athletic Union. An active role in the popularization of basketball was played at that time by its direct creator, J. Naismith.

    Professional basketball

    At the beginning of the 20th century, the first professional basketball teams began to take shape. On the one hand, throughout the United States in settlements of various sizes, a significant number of such teams (several hundred in number) arose; on the other hand, any organization of professional games was practically non-existent. Players arbitrarily moved between teams, matches were held in premises not adapted for competitions, various leagues and associations appeared and disbanded. Some "tour" teams (eng. barnstorming squads), such as, for example, Original Celtics, New York Renaissance Five or Harlem Globetrotters (the latter still exists to this day) managed to play up to 200 matches a year on their trips around the country.

    FIBA abandoned the distinction between amateur and professional basketball, as already mentioned, in 1989, and three years later professional players took part in the Olympics for the first time. The American team of this year received the unofficial name " Dream Team»(English Dream Team), strengthening the dominant position of the United States in this sport; however, over time, as basketball developed in other countries of the world, other national teams began to gradually win over the American team. So, at the 2002 World Championship in Indianapolis, the US team, made up exclusively of NBA players, ended up in sixth, skipping ahead in the standings of the Yugoslav team, Argentina, Germany, New Zealand and Spain. In 2004, at the Summer Games in Athens, the Americans suffered their first Olympic defeat with professional players, group stage losing to the national teams of Puerto Rico and Lithuania and losing in the semifinals to the Argentine team (managing, however, to win bronze in the match with Lithuania for third place). A similar situation developed at the World Championship in Japan in 2006 - there the US team also took the third line of the standings. However, then american team achieved high results at the 2008 Olympics and at the 2010 World Championship in Turkey.

    The globalization of basketball was reflected both in the composition of the teams and in the statistics of the NBA: for example, representatives of all continents now participate in the association's competitions. Basically, the peak of activity of players from other countries of the world fell on the mid-90s, when the NBA came famous athletes from European countries (mainly Eastern).

    Rules

    Initially, the rules of the game of basketball were formulated by the American James Naismith and consisted of only 13 points. Over time, basketball changed, and the rules demanded changes. The first international rules of the game were adopted in 1932 at the first FIBA ​​Congress, after which they were repeatedly adjusted and changed, the last significant changes were made in 2004. Since 2004, the rules of the game have remained unchanged. The rules of the game are somewhat different in the NBA and championships held under the auspices of FIBA ​​(world championships, Olympic Games, continental championships, international and national championships of European clubs).

    Basketball is played by two teams, usually ten people, each of which has five players on the court at the same time. The goal of each team in basketball is to get the ball into the opponent's basket and prevent the other team from getting possession of the ball and putting it into their own team's basket.

    The ball is played only with the hands. Running with the ball without hitting it on the floor, intentionally kicking it, blocking it with any part of the leg, or punching it is a foul. Accidental contact or touching of the ball with the foot or leg is not a violation.

    Indeed, according to historians, a game very reminiscent of modern basketball was played by the indigenous people of South America as early as the 5th century BC. The rules of modern basketball were invented in 1891; James Naismith, a physical education teacher at one of the US colleges, can be considered their forefather. From the ancestors of the South Americans, the main attributes of the game have been preserved - two rival teams and a ball that needs to be thrown into the basket. But at the same time, the game received more stringent rules and its modern name on English language, consisting of a phrase of words: “ball” - “bol” and “basket” - “basket”. It turned out to play a basket with a ball or in English - basketball. In 1935, the first European Basketball Championship took place, and the following year, basketball was included in the program of the International Olympic Games.

    How is basketball played?

    Everyone knows the rules of the game, but I dare to remind you:


    - 2 teams play basketball, while only 5 people from each team can be on the field at the same time;

    - you can’t just run with the ball, you can only move around the court by hitting it off the floor, if the player who leads the ball runs more than 3 steps without a bounce - this is considered a run and the right to dribble passes to the other team;

    - the goal of the game is to throw the ball into the basket, which is located at a height of 3.05 meters from the floor, which is why the height of the player is crucial in basketball;

    - for each hit in the basket, two or three points are awarded, depending on the distance from which the throw was made.

    The image of an ideal basketball player, what qualities he should have:

    • high self-discipline;
    • compliance with the regime;
    • unquestioningly following the instructions of the coach;
    • loyalty to the enemy;
    • respect for referees;
    • feeling of comradely shoulder;

    If you think that there are very few such players, you are deeply mistaken. On the contrary, there are a lot of them, but they all have one drawback: unfortunately, they do not know how to play basketball.

    Introduction

    Basketball is one of the most popular ball games today. It's movable fun game developing agility and endurance.

    Like any other sports game, basketball helps the body maintain and restore health, keep youth. Basketball is played by children, young people, and older people. This game is the subject of my work.

    Relevance

    IN modern life more and more the use of physical exercises is aimed not at achieving high results, but at increasing their health-improving effect on the general population. To solve such a global problem, the most effective means are primarily sports games. (Matveev L.P., 1991).

    Modern basketball is in a stage of rapid creative upsurge, aimed at activating actions, both in attack and defense.

    Basketball is one of the means physical development and education of youth (Portnov Yu.M., 1997).

    In accordance with the comprehensive program of physical education of schoolchildren (Matveev L.P., 1995), basketball is one of the means of physical education. The technique of playing basketball is diverse. Throws are the most important technique. The success of the game ultimately depends on the accuracy of the throw. By throwing the ball, schoolchildren begin to study in the 5th grade. However, we did not find literature data reflecting the level of schoolchildren's ability to learn throws, which are studied according to the school curriculum. Knowledge of the level of learning and the dynamics of the formation of the throwing technique will allow teachers to select and use in the lesson the means that provide learning for more high level. Therefore, my work is relevant.

    Foreword

    Agree that Basketball is not only the most exciting, but also the most perfect of team sports. It is preferable to all others in terms of dynamics, variety of game situations, entertainment and emotional perception. Basketball does not limit the number of points played, like volleyball or tennis, for example, and a victory with today's ridiculous score of 19: 8 in the final match of the men's teams of the United States and Canada at the Berlin Olympics in 1936 is no less convincing than any victory with a three-digit score in championship NBA. Basketball does not involve the use of power techniques, a person cannot be knocked down, pushed and slammed into the side, as in hockey, therefore basketball can afford to be more diverse in terms of individual technique, coordination, plasticity, and, as a result, it is more intelligent. Basketball does not attract such huge and unruly audiences as football, and does not lead to mass psychosis with carnage, murder and the collapse of stadiums. It is generally not intended to play the role of a valve for venting the vapors of social and interethnic tension. Simply put, in basketball, the flames of the hearts of the spectators never spread to the buildings.

    If ice hockey (as they like to say now) is a fight of gladiators, then basketball is rather akin to a theatrical performance with unlimited scope for coaching directing, performing skills and decorative and design abilities of match and tournament organizers. Strictly speaking, basketball has only one ambiguous property: the "vertical coordinate" provides an initial (and undeserved) advantage to tall players. Basketball is growing up, becoming more elitist. With all the ensuing losses. First of all - in mass. There is no other sport where the anthropometric parameters of an athlete (height, arm length, etc.) would be so important. The latter is partly compensated by the improvement of tactics, the evolution of the rules of the game, and the population of the Earth itself is growing on average. (Sometimes, however, purely organizational measures were also used. So, in 1969, FIBA, preoccupied with gigantomania, organized the European Championship in Spain among basketball players whose height did not exceed 190 cm. According to eyewitnesses, attendance at the tournament was low: the viewer voted with their feet against such a "beheading". In other words, it's not over yet...) And although the eternal dualism between the perfect technique of the "kids" and the relative helplessness of the super-gullivers, hanging in clusters on the rings after each throw from above, will not be eliminated for a long time, the phenomenon of such universals as Gennady Volnov, Alexander Belov and Arvydas Sabonis inspire hope.

    Basketball today is the most harmoniously developing sport. It is not locked in the grip of athleticism plus speed intensification alone, like other sports games. It contains the richest internal opportunities for the development of game thinking and the improvement of technical methods.

    The history of the origin of basketball

    The intro to this section, reminiscent of a bench, is, of course, a metaphor: the priests in ancient Egypt did not play basketball. In general, looking for the origins of modern basketball in the mists of time is, apparently, a hopeless thing. He is too unlike anything, too far from the natural, original motor skills of a person. The bouncing ball, this child's play is definitely mesmerizing. As, however, and any other periodic process: oscillations of a pendulum, rotation of a jump rope or Mobil desktop souvenir, popular today, imitating a perpetual motion machine. In this sense, man is not far from the cat.

    Of course, the ideas of all kinds of ball games in the history of mankind were much more than those few games that took shape as modern views sports...

    As a possible forerunner of basketball, sports historians name the following games: pok-tapok (7th century AD, Central America); "Tlachtli", referring to the culture of the "Maya" tribe in South America, and "ollamalitzli" (Mexico, 16th century). In all these distant lands, a rubber tree grows, so the “pram” was made of rubber.

    However, today it is a generally accepted fact that basketball has no historical roots, even in an illustrative sense. It is entirely invented, as it should be for any work of art.

    Basketball was invented by James Naismith (1861-1939), a college teacher in Springfield (Massachusetts, USA). The college was owned by the Young Christian Association (YMCA). Later, the National College Athletic Association (NCAA) began to manage college basketball in the United States. Through her received a ticket to professional clubs NBA is almost all the stars of American basketball.

    Discovery of James Naismith

    Basketball is perhaps the only popular species sports, the date and place of origin of which are known for certain. More than a dozen books have been written about this significant event, often with fictitious details telling about the first steps of this future addiction of millions. And, nevertheless, it makes sense to at least schematically outline the main points of the formation and development of basketball, an artificially invented game that managed to win the hearts of fans around the world in a matter of decades, which in itself seems to be an unprecedented phenomenon.

    Already as a physical education teacher and college professor at Springfield, James Naismith was faced with the challenge of creating a game for the Massachusetts winter between baseball and football.

    Naismith believed that due to the weather of this time of year, the best solution would be to invent an indoor game.

    Naismith wanted to create an outdoor game for students at the Christian Workers' School that involved more than just force.

    He needed a game that could be played indoors in a relatively small space.

    And so, in December 1891, James Naismith presented his nameless invention to his gymnastics class in Springfield (YMCA).

    In less than an hour, James Naismith, sitting at his desk in his office at the YMCA, formulated the thirteen rules of basketball.

    1. The ball can be thrown in any direction with one or both hands
    2. The ball may be hit with one or both hands in any direction, but never with the fist.
    3. The player cannot run with the ball. The player must pass or throw the ball into the basket from the spot where he caught it, except for a player running at good speed.
    4. The ball must be held with one or two hands. You can not use the forearms and body to hold the ball.
    5. In any case, hitting, grabbing, holding and pushing the opponent is not allowed. The first violation of this rule by any player shall be called a foul (dirty play); the second foul disqualifies him until the next ball has been potted and if there was an obvious intention to injure the player, for the entire game. No substitution is allowed.
    6. Hitting the ball with a fist is a violation of paragraphs of rules 2 and 4, the penalty is described in paragraph 5.
    7. If one of the sides commits three fouls in a row, they must be recorded as a goal for the opponents (this means that during this time the opponents must not commit a single foul).
    8. A goal is counted - if the ball thrown or bounced off the floor hits the basket and stays there. Defending players are not allowed to touch the ball or basket while shooting. If the ball touches the edge and the opponents move the basket, then a goal is scored.
    9. If the ball goes into touch (out of bounds), then it must be thrown into the field and the first player to touch it. In the event of a dispute, the referee must throw the ball into the field. The thrower is allowed to hold the ball for five seconds. If he holds it longer, then the ball is given to the opponent. If either side tries to play for time, the referee must give them a foul.
    10. The referee must monitor the actions of the players and fouls, and notify the referee of three consecutive fouls. He has the power to disqualify players under Rule 5.
    11. The referee must keep an eye on the ball and determine when the ball is in play (inbounds) and when it goes out of bounds (out of bounds), which side should be in possession of the ball, and control the time. He must determine the defeat of the goal, keep a record of goals scored, as well as perform any other actions that are normally performed by the referee.
    12. The game consists of two halves of 15 minutes each with a break of five minutes between them.
    13. The side that threw more balls in this period of time is the winner.

    Basketball has changed over time...

    In the winter of 1891, students at the Youth Christian Association College in Springfield, Massachusetts, simply languished in physical education classes, forced to perform endless gymnastic exercises, which were considered at that time almost the only means of introducing young people to sports. The monotony of such activities had to be urgently put an end to, to introduce a fresh stream into them, which would be able to satisfy the competitive needs of strong and healthy young people.

    A humble college teacher named James Naismith found a way out of what seemed to be an impasse. In December of the same year, the first game was played soccer ball, and instead of rings, he tied two peach baskets to the railing of the balcony of the sports hall and, dividing eighteen students into two teams, offered them a game, the meaning of which was to throw more balls into the opponents' basket. A start was made. Could Dr. Naismith then have guessed what a great future awaits his offspring?

    Quite pragmatically called "basketball" (basket - basket, ball - ball), the game, of course, only remotely resembled the enchanting spectacle that we know under this name today. There was no dribbling of the ball, the players only threw it to each other, standing still, and tried to throw it into the basket, and only with both hands from below or from the chest, and after a successful throw, one of the players climbed onto a ladder attached to the wall and removed the ball from baskets. From a modern point of view, the actions of the teams would seem to us sluggish and inhibited, but the goal of Dr. Naismith was to create a team game in which a large number of participants could be involved at the same time, and his invention fully met this task.

    But soon, after the first game, the sheet with the rules disappeared ...

    And a few days later, one of Naismith's students, Frank Mahon, confessed to the "crime"...

    “I took them,” Mahon told his teacher.

    "I knew this game would be a big hit and I took them as a souvenir.

    But now I think they should belong to you…”

    Already on February 12, 1892, having studied the rules and mastered the basics of technology, the students of Springfield College, in the presence of a hundred spectators, held the first "official" match in the history of basketball, which ended peacefully with a score of 2:2. His success was so deafening, and the rumor of new game spread with such speed that soon the two Springfield teams began to hold demonstration meetings, gathering hundreds of spectators at their performances. Their initiative was picked up by students from other colleges, and the very next year the entire American Northeast was in the grip of basketball fever.

    spontaneous education amateur teams and leagues led to the fact that students aspired to engage exclusively in basketball, preferring it not only to such traditional game types as American football and baseball, but also beloved gymnastics by college trustees. Officials of the Youth Christian Association, heeding the complaints of opponents of the new trend, did not close their eyes to such a blatant violation of the foundations educational process and practically slammed the doors of student sports halls in front of basketball. However, their desire to ban the rapidly gaining popularity the new kind sport was like trying to manually stop a speeding train.

    However, in these prohibitions, if desired, one can also find positive side, because it was they who provoked the first professional basketball match, that is, a match for money.

    It happened in 1896, when a team from Trenton, New Jersey, in order to pay the rent of the hall, was forced to sell tickets to their game. Having paid after the meeting with the owners of the premises, the Trenton team discovered that they had a part of the proceeds from the tickets, which was equally divided among the players, making each of them richer by $ 15 ...

    The origin of basketball in Russia

    The birthplace of domestic basketball is St. Petersburg. This fact is well known and beyond doubt.

    The first mention of this game in our country belongs to the famous Russian propagandist of physical culture and sports, Georgy Dupperon from St. Petersburg, and it refers to 1901. As early as September 1900, the Committee for Promoting the Moral and Intellectual Development of Young People was established in St. Petersburg. His program included lecturing on various sections of human life. And already in 1904, physical education appeared in the program of the committee, which, along with moral and mental development, added physical education. The society was given the name "Mayak". In the report for 1907 of its activity (from 09/22/1906 to 09/22/1907) there was a mention of the invitation to Russia of the American specialist E. Moraller, who told the Mayakovites about a completely new overseas game. It turned out that The best sportsmen of "Mayak" were acquainted with basketball in the first place. At the end of 1906, the first basketball matches were held in the Society. The winner of the first competitions was invariably the team of “lilac” (according to the color of the T-shirts), headed by one of the best gymnasts of the society, S. Vasiliev, later called the “grandfather of Russian basketball”.

    And already in 1909, an event took place that became a milestone in the history of not only domestic, but also world basketball. A group of members of the American Christian Association came to St. Petersburg. Of these, it was made basketball team, which, to the general joy of St. Petersburg, lost to the local team "purple" with a score of 19:28. This meeting was held in the new hall of the Mayak Society at No. 35 on Nadezhdenskaya Street (in Soviet times - Mayakovsky Street). It is this historic meeting in the book "World Basketball", published in Munich in 1972 on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the FIBA ​​Basketball Federation, that is called the first real international basketball match.

    Thus, it turns out that it was Russia that became the venue for the first international basketball match on the planet. These two events - the first game, held in 1906, and the first international match in 1909 - gave rise to doubts about the date of birth of basketball in Russia. For many years, anniversary tournaments were held, starting from 1906, up to the 80th anniversary of national basketball. But then one inaccuracy was discovered: in the memoirs of the “grandfather of Russian basketball”, already well-known to us, that first game of 1906, held in the hall of the Mayak society on Nadezhdenskaya street, was mentioned. It has been archived that the new hall of the Mayak society was put into operation a little later. Apparently, on this basis, some hotheads “decided” to consider the date of birth of basketball in Russia not 1906, but, say ... 1909! And this after multiple anniversaries on the occasion of the 50th anniversary - in 1956, the 60th anniversary - in the 66th, the 75th anniversary - in the 81st, and finally, the 80th anniversary - in the 86th?

    This question is not idle. It should be resolved by sports historians, it is they who can bring the necessary clarity in order to put an end to this issue. But back to St. Petersburg.

    Thanks to the efforts of the Mayakovites, basketball soon began to spread in other sports societies and educational institutions of the city, and after the revolution it confidently marched across the country and already in 1920 was included in the school curriculum of Vseobucha along with football as a compulsory discipline. created the first in the country basketball league, chaired by F. Jurgenson. And it was this organization that was the prototype of the current federation, and it was under its auspices that the city's basketball championship was held for the first time in the same year.

    A lot of work was done by the future federations in organizing all kinds of championships, tournaments, and since 1923 - national championships, first among cities, and then among sports societies. I must say that the Leningrad teams have repeatedly become champions: in the 23rd, both teams - both women's and men's, then the women's - in the 35th, and the men's - in the 36th. In 1955, the Leningrad men's team became the champion of all-Union indoor competitions among the national teams of the Union republics, as well as Moscow and Leningrad. Then our teams won the title of champions of the country four more times: the women's team "Spartak" (head coach S. Gelchinsky) - in 1974 and the team "Electrosila" (head coach E. Kozhevnikov) - in 1990; the men's team "Spartak" in 1975 became the champion Soviet Union, and in 1992 - the champion of the CIS. Both victories were won under the guidance of coach V. Kondrashin.

    A great contribution to the organization of city basketball, to the problems of the growth of young specialists, to the training of Masters of the highest qualification, who subsequently performed well in the national teams of the USSR and Russia, to the training of coaching staff was first made by the basketball section of the city Committee for Physical Culture and Sports, and then by the Leningrad Basketball Federation (St. Petersburg). In the pre-war and first post-war years, these organizations were headed by S. Holstein, M. Krutikov. In subsequent years, the federation was headed by the Honored Master of Sports V. Razzhivin, secretary of the district party committee G. Semibratov, executive officer of the Leningrad City Executive Committee B. Leshukov, scientist and journalist M. Chuprov and, finally, general of the tax police G. Poltavchenko. As part of a public organization, which was the federation, people of various specialties actively worked. Their contribution to the development of basketball in the city on the Neva is enormous. We can recall only a few of them: V. Zheldin, Yu. Gerasimov, E. Ershova, B. Ivanov, A. Dmitriev, G. Ulyashenko, Yu. Appolonov, V. Shamis, Yu. , E. Ivanova, V. Trzheskal, Y. Portnykh, O. Vdovin, Y. Alekseev, S. Afanasyev, V. Uglyankin, O. Mamontov, D. Frolov and many, many others. The main directions in the work of the federation were: grassroots basketball, reserve training, performances by master teams, refereeing issues, including the training of referees, and promotion of basketball in the media and on television.

    With the collapse of the USSR, domestic basketball, like other sports, as well as the whole Russian life fell into a prolonged coma. The transition from the all-Union to the Russian rails was accompanied by many destructive processes: the financial collapse of clubs and teams, the exodus big sport from the capitals, the outflow of players, etc. The influx and dominance of foreign players brought to the fore the interests of the clubs. The interests of the Russian national teams were reduced to a kind of elective. The sacramental question sounded with might and main: “What are we playing for - for the Motherland or for money?” And there is no clear answer yet.

    And if the Russian women's team, in the end, was able to overcome this decline by winning the "silver" at the 2002 World Championships, winning the European Championship in 2003 and winning the "bronze" at the Athens Olympics (coach - V.P. Kapranov) , then men's basketball fell into a deep systemic crisis. Eighth at the European Championships (twice in a row); tenth at the World Championships - these are still not our places. In addition, the men's team could not "qualify" either for the Athens Olympiad or for the 2006 World Cup. Obviously, some fundamentally new conceptual approach is needed to bring Russian men's basketball out of the current crisis, to return it to its former glory...

    Summing up the results of the first century of the development of basketball in the Soviet Union and in Russia, I would like to believe that the accumulated glorious traditions will not be forgotten and Russian men's basketball will return the lost leading positions in Europe and the world, and the Russian women's team will finally gain a foothold in the top lines of European, world and Olympic tournaments, as, in fact, it was already in the 50-80s of the last century ...

    Basketball ( English basket- basket, ball- ball) - sports team game with a ball. Basketball is played by two teams, each consisting of five players. The goal of each team is to throw the ball into the opponent's net ring (basket) with their hands and prevent the other team from taking possession of the ball and throwing it into their own basket. The basket (mesh ring) is at a height of 3.05 meters (10 feet) from the floor. There are 5 people from each team on the court, in total there are 12 people in the team, substitutions are not limited. For a ball thrown from near and medium distance, 2 points are counted, from the far (because of the three-point line) - 3 points. A free throw is worth one point. Standard size basketball court 28 meters long and 15 meters wide. Basketball is one of the most popular sports in the world.

    Basic rules of basketball

    Initially, the rules of the game of basketball were formulated by an American James Naismith and consisted of only 13 items. Basketball has changed over time, and so have the rules.

    The first international rules of the game were adopted in 1932 at the first FIBA ​​congress, after that they were repeatedly adjusted and changed, the last significant changes were made to 1998 And 2004. Since 2004, the rules of the game have remained unchanged. The rules of the game are somewhat different in the NBA and championships held under the auspices of FIBA ​​(World Championships, Olympic Games, Continental Championships, international and national championships of European clubs)

    Basketball is played by two teams, usually twelve people, each of which has five players on the court at the same time.

    The goal of each team in basketball is to get the ball into the opponent's basket and prevent the other team from getting possession of the ball and putting it into their own team's basket.

    The ball is played only with the hands. Running with the ball without hitting it on the floor, intentionally kicking it, blocking it with any part of the leg, or punching it is a foul. Accidental contact or touching of the ball with the foot or leg is not a violation.

    The winner in basketball is the team with the most points at the end of playing time. In case of a tie at the end of the main time of the match, overtime is assigned (usually five minutes of extra time), if the score is even at the end of it, a second, third overtime is assigned, etc., until the winner is revealed match.

    For one hit of the ball into the ring, a different number of points can be counted:

    1 point - free throw

    2 points - shot from an average or close distance (closer to the three-point line)

    3 points - shot from behind the three-point line at a distance of 6m 75cm (7m 24cm in )

    The game officially begins with a jump ball in the center circle when the ball is legally tapped by one of the jumpers. A match consists of four periods of ten minutes each (twelve minutes per National Basketball Association) with breaks of two minutes.

    The duration of the break between the second and third quarters of the game is fifteen minutes. After big break the teams must exchange pots.

    The game can be played in an open area and in a hall with a height of at least 7 m. The size of the field is 28x15 m. The shield is 180x105 cm from the stand. From the lower edge of the shield to the floor or ground should be 275 cm. The basket is a metal ring covered with mesh without a bottom. It is attached at a distance of 0.31 m from the lower edge of the shield. The ball circumference established by FIBA ​​standards for men's competitions is 74.9-78 cm, weight - 567-650 g (for women, respectively, 72.4-73.7 cm and 510-567 g).

    Characteristics, classification and meaning of throws in modern basketball

    The modern trend of the game determines the direction of technical training. High results can only be achieved with a high level technical readiness players. To do this, the basketball player must:

    1. own the techniques of the game known to modern basketball and be able to implement them in different conditions;
    2. be able to combine techniques with each other in any sequence in a variety of game conditions. A variety of actions, combining various techniques in combat with the enemy;
    3. own a set of techniques that you have to use more often in the game, and perform them with the greatest effect;
    4. constantly improve techniques, improving the overall consistency and speed of their implementation (Portnov Yu.M., 1988).

    In basketball, a team's success comes from an accurate finishing shot.

    Until recently, and even today, the main means of attack is a jumping throw with one hand from above. In the competitions of the strongest men's teams in the world, up to 70% of all shots from the field are made in this way, from various distances.

    The main characteristics of the throw. Speaking about basketball throws, one should keep in mind their three main characteristics - the type of throw, style and technique, understood here as the organizational structure of the throwing movements. Basketball snipers differ in style, in the variety of shots. But they do not differ in the basics of technology - the biomechanical principles of movements - arms, legs, torso when directing the ball exactly into the basket. The basics of technique, such as footwork, holding the ball and the direction of the elbow of the throwing hand are not the same for different snipers (Yakhontov E.R., 1987).

    Throws in the basket - essential element in basketball. To win a match, a team must outscore the opponent, and this is achieved through more accurate shots. All other tricks of the game serve to create conditions for mastering the basket. To benefit the team, each player must be able to accurately hit the basket (Lindberg F., 1971).

    Each throw is based on a technique for performing one of six throws:

    1. two hands below;
    2. one hand from below;
    3. two hands from a place;
    4. with one hand from a place;
    5. jump shot;
    6. hook.

    Although some modification is necessary to cover different distances and in various conditions, the throws listed above provide the basis for any other throw (Cosey B., Power F., 1975).

    The classification of basket throws (Portnov Yu.M., 1997) is as follows:

    1. throws with two hands; throws with one hand;
    2. throws from above, from the chest, from below, from top to bottom, finishing off;
    3. throws with ball rotation, with a rebound from the shield, without a rebound from the shield;
    4. by the nature of the player's movement: from a place, in motion, in a jump:
    5. by distance: far, medium, near
    6. towards the backboard: directly in front of the backboard, at an angle to the backboard, parallel to the backboard.

    Game technique

    You can get the greatest pleasure from the game if you learn how to correctly perform the basic techniques of the game - passing, dribbling, throwing into the basket, defending, rebounding and finishing off the ball that bounced off the backboard. At first, for a beginner, probably, not everything will turn out as smoothly as experienced athlete. But experience is a matter of time. The most important thing is to remember the first rule - when holding the ball, hold it with your fingers and never clasp it with your palms.

    Transfers- the simplest and effective method moving the ball towards the opponent's basket. Their main types are transfers with two hands from the chest, two hands from below, one hand from the shoulder, one and two hands with a rebound from the floor.

    There are other types of passing, such as passing behind the back, but it requires experience.

    To catch the ball, you need to stretch your arms towards him with your fingers apart and, as soon as he touches your fingers, bend your arms, pulling the ball to your chest.

    The transmission technique is simple. They require, as a rule, a small swing and "shooting" movement of the hand with the ball in the direction of a partner.

    We must try to pass quickly and accurately. Their target should be the partner's chest or specially outstretched arm.

    Dribbling

    The player can move with the ball on the court only by successively hitting it on the floor with one or the other hand. When dribbling the ball, you need to follow a few simple rules:

    • The push of the ball to the floor is carried out mainly by the movement of the fingers and hand.
    • Hitting the ball with the palm of your hand will be a mistake.
    • Do not look down at the ball - keep your head up so you can see other players and the court as a whole. The ball must be controlled with lateral, peripheral vision.
    • When administering right hand the ball is held slightly to the side, in front - on the right, on the left side, in front - on the left.
    • The dribbling player must be positioned between the ball and the defender.
    • His legs are bent, and his body is tilted forward. This position covers the defender's ball, provides sufficient speed and avoids miscasting.
    Throwing the ball into the basket

    There are the following ways to throw the ball into the basket:

    • Throw from under the basket with one hand from above
    • Throw with one hand
    • Jump shot
    • Shield Throw
    Individual protective actions

    The success of individual protective actions is determined by two characteristics. The first is psychological. It includes such qualities as aggressiveness, prudence, courage. Without psychological mood cannot be successfully defended. The second characteristic is physical. Here the stand, the position of the player's body, his endurance, position on the court are important.

    Violations, fouls

    Violations:

    • out - the ball goes out of the playing area;
    • run - a player in control of a "live" ball makes a movement of the legs in excess of the restrictions established by the rules
    • violation of dribbling, including carrying the ball, double dribbling;
    • three seconds - an attacking player is in the free throw zone for more than three seconds while his team is in possession of the ball in the attacking zone;
    • five seconds - the player, when taking a throw-in, does not part with the ball for five seconds;
    • eight seconds - the team in possession of the ball from the defense zone did not bring it to the attack zone in eight seconds;
    • seconds - the team had possession of the ball for more than 24 seconds and did not make an accurate shot at the ring. The team is entitled to a new 24 second possession if the ball thrown at the ring touches the hoop of the ring or the backboard, as well as in the event of a foul by the defending team.
    • tightly guarded player - a player holds the ball for more than five seconds, while an opponent closely guards him;
    • violations of the return of the ball to the defense zone - the team in possession of the ball in the attack zone transferred it to the defense zone.
    fouls

    The referee calls a foul

    Foul is an infraction of the rules caused by personal contact or unsportsmanlike conduct. Vidyfolov:

    • personal;
    • technical;
    • non-athletic;
    • disqualifying.

    A player who receives 5 fouls (6 fouls in the NBA) in a match must leave the playing court and may not take part in the match (but is allowed to remain on the bench). A player who receives a disqualifying foul must leave the match venue (the player is not allowed to remain on the bench).

    The coach is disqualified if:

    • he commits 2 technical fouls;
    • a team official or substitute commits 3 technical fouls;
    • the coach commits 1 technical foul and a team official or substitute commits 2 technical fouls.
    • swearing and insults are prohibited

    Each foul counts for team fouls, except for a technical foul received by a coach, team official or bench player.

    Personal foul - a foul due to personal contact.

    Punishment:

    If the foul is committed on a player who is not in the throwing stage, then:

    • if a team does not score 5 team fouls or the foul is committed by the player whose team was in possession of the ball, the affected team shall take a throw-in;
    • otherwise, the injured player takes 2 free throws;

    If the foul is committed on a player in the throwing phase, then:

    • if the throw was successful, it counts and the injured player takes 1 free throw;
    • if the throw was unsuccessful, then the injured player takes as many free throws as the number of points the team would have earned had the throw been successful.

    An unsportsmanlike foul is a foul committed as a result of contact in which the player did not attempt to play the ball within the rules.

    Punishment:

    If the foul is committed on a player who is in the throwing stage, then proceed in the same way as in the case of a personal foul. If the foul is committed on a player who is not in the throwing stage, then the injured player takes 2 throws. After free throws are taken, the injured team throws in the ball from outside the area on the continuation central line. The exception is fouls committed before the start of the first period. In this case, after the free throws, a jump ball is played (as in the case of a normal start of the game). If a player commits 2 unsportsmanlike fouls in one match, he shall be disqualified.

    A disqualifying foul is a foul due to flagrant unsportsmanlike conduct. A disqualifying foul may be received by a player, substitute, coach or team official.

    Punishment:

    The number of free throws and the throw-in after them are charged in the same way as an unsportsmanlike foul.

    Technical foul - a foul not caused by contact with an opponent. This may be disrespect for the referees, an opponent, a delay in the game, violations of a procedural nature.

    Punishment:

    Any player on the non-offending team scores 2 free throws. After the throws have been made, the discard is done in the same way as an unsportsmanlike foul.

    in winter 1891 college students of the Youth Christian Association from Springfield, state Massachusetts, forced to perform endless gymnastic exercises, which at that time were considered almost the only means of introducing young people to sports, it was very boring in physical education classes. The monotony of such activities had to be urgently put an end to, to introduce a fresh stream into them, which would be able to satisfy the competitive needs of strong and healthy young people.

    A humble college teacher named James Naismith found a way out of what seemed to be an impasse. On December 1, 1891, he tied two peach baskets to the railing of the balcony of the sports hall and, dividing eighteen students into two teams, offered them a game, the meaning of which was to throw more balls into the opponents' basket. A start was made. Could Dr. Naismith then have guessed what a great future awaits his offspring?

    The idea of ​​this game originated in his school years, when children played the old game "duck-on-a-rock". The meaning of this game, popular at that time, was as follows: throwing a small stone, it was necessary to hit the top of another stone, larger in size, with it.

    Quite pragmatically called "basketball" ( English basket- basket, ball- ball) the game, of course, only remotely resembled the enchanting spectacle that we know under this name today. There was no dribbling, the players only threw it to each other, standing still, and then tried to throw it into the basket, and only with both hands from below or from the chest, and after a successful throw, one of the players climbed onto a ladder attached to the wall and removed the ball from the basket .

    From a modern point of view, the actions of the teams would seem to us sluggish and inhibited, but the goal of Dr. Naismith was to create a team game in which a large number of participants could be involved at the same time, and his invention fully met this task.

    Characteristics of basketball as a means of physical education of schoolchildren

    Basketball is one of the most popular games in our country. It is characterized by a variety of movements; walking, running, stopping, turning, jumping, catching, throwing and dribbling in single combat with opponents. Such diverse movements contribute to the improvement of metabolism, the activity of all body systems, and form coordination.

    Basketball has not only health-improving and hygienic significance, but also propaganda and educational. Basketball helps to form perseverance, courage, determination, honesty, self-confidence, a sense of collectivism. But the effectiveness of education depends, first of all, on how purposefully the relationship between physical and moral education is carried out in the pedagogical process (Belov S., 1990).

    Basketball, as a means of physical education, has found wide application in various parts of the physical culture movement.

    In the system of public education, basketball is included in the programs of physical preschoolers, general secondary, secondary, vocational, secondary specialized and higher education (Portnov Yu.M., 1997)

    Basketball is an exciting athletic game that is an effective means of physical education. No wonder it is very popular among students. Basketball, as an important means of physical education and health improvement of children, is included in the general educational programs of secondary schools, schools with polytechnic and industrial training, children's sports schools, city departments of public education and departments of sports voluntary societies.

    Consolidation of the achieved results and further improvement of the level sportsmanship closely intertwined with mass health work and qualified training of reserves of the most talented young men and women. Such reserves are prepared in children's sports schools(John R., Wooden, 1987).

    Long-term education of children requires taking into account the peculiarities of their age development, and in this regard, a careful set of tools and methods of educational work. Currently, there are many manuals that cover modern basketball techniques in detail. They set out general issues of organizing pedagogical work, as well as specific practical materials that need to be learned at a certain age (Zeldovich T., Keraminas S., 1964)

    One of critical tasks general education school - education in children of the need for daily physical exercise. The solution of this problem requires perseverance, creativity, a lot of skills and knowledge from the teacher of physical culture. And above all, one must be able to build on not only one's own activity, but also the activity of students in the lesson. And so that it has its appropriate continuation in the form of self-study at home for the purpose of physical self-improvement. And for this, first of all, you need to know the real capabilities of your pupils (Turkulov B.N., 1993)

    Variety of technical and tactical actions Basketball games and the actual game activity have unique properties for the formation of vital skills and abilities of schoolchildren, the comprehensive development of their physical and mental qualities. Mastered motor actions of playing basketball and associated with it physical exercise are effective means of health promotion and recreation and can be used by a person throughout his life in independent forms of physical education (Kofman L.B., 1998).

    Conclusion

    A basketball player must be a comprehensively physically developed athlete. To do this, it is necessary to cultivate in oneself such important physical qualities as speed of movement (passes, throws, interceptions of the ball, etc.), speed of movement (running, breaking away, returning to defense, etc.), jumping ability (throws into the ring, wrestling for bouncing the ball), dexterity (feints, fighting for the ball), eye (passing, throwing) and, of course, endurance, without which 40 minutes of playing time will become incredibly difficult. Especially when pressure is applied against the team.

    Self-study of students in education physical qualities, to improve the elements of basketball technique can be organized in three forms: the performance of episodic homework; morning specialized gymnastics; basketball player self-training (individual or group). Along with training sessions physical education, training in sports section such self-study will help to increase the level of physical fitness, learn the game and become a useful player for the team, a good basketball player.
