Who came up with sports?

Have you ever wondered who invented different kind of sports?

I dont know I suppose we can Google it.

Let's go and check it out.

OK here we are with the inventor of basketball.

The history of basketball began with its invention in 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts by Canadian physical education instructor James Naismith as a less injury-prone sport than football. Naismith was a 31-year old graduate student when he created the indoor sport to keep athletes indoors during the winters.^[1] The game became established fairly quickly and grew very popular as the 20th century progressed, first in America and then in other parts of the world. After basketball became established in American colleges, the professional game followed. The American National Basketball Association (NBA), established in 1946, grew to a multibillion-dollar enterprise by the end of the century, and basketball became an integral part of American culture. 

Looks pretty interesting. Who could even come up with such an idea.
