The rules were sold Friday for $4,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].3 million US. (Bebeto Matthews/Associated Press)James Naismith wrote the 13 rules 119 years ago with the aim of creating a new indoor winter sport for boys at a Massachusetts YMCA.
"Basketball is a pure invention,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Selby Kiffer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], senior specialist in American history documents at Sotheby's auction house,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in October when the sale was announced.
"It's really the genesis, the birth certificate of one of the world's most popular sports. It's a sport that has had an impact on everything from fashion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as sneakers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to culture that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in a way,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], transcends sports."
The rules were sold by the Naismith International Basketball Foundation for $4.3 million, which includes a buyer's premium. The proceeds will benefit the foundation, which promotes sportsmanship and provides services to underprivileged children around the world.
Ian Naismith, the foundation's founder and grandson of James Naismith, told The Associated Press in an interview in October that it was a family decision to put the rules on the auction block and give the money to the Naismith charity.
"It's what Dr. Naismith wanted,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said.
James Naismith wrote the original rules for basketball in 1891. (Associated Press)James Naismith penned the rules on Dec. 21, 1891,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for the YMCA training school in Springfield, Mass. His boss had given him two weeks to come up with a new indoor activity for his gym class, and he wrote down the rules on the eve of that deadline.
He gave the list to his secretary,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who typed them up on two pages that Naismith pinned on a bulletin board outside the gym. The auctioned copy of the rules also includes handwritten notes by Naismith.
He moved to Lawrence, Kan.,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in 1898 and became the first basketball coach at the University of Kansas. He coached for nine seasons before assuming other academic duties and serving as athletics director.
One of his players was Forrest (Phog) Allen, who went on to become popularly known as the "father of basketball coaches."
The two are memorialized on the University of Kansas campus, where the basketball court at Allen Fieldhouse is named James Naismith Court.
Naismith died in 1939,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], three years after his new game became an official sport at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin.
