Excerpt from Newcomb College Basket Ball Guide for Women: Collegiate Rules
Basket ball was introduced into Newcomb College, and into the South, in 1893. At that time the game was not generally known and in relation to gills' athletics, had no definite place. After a short trial of the game at Newcomb it was abandoned for a few months. Later, in January, 1894, a modified form of basket ball was substituted. The chief feature of the modified game was the introduction of dividing lines 011 the field to prevent the general rush after the ball. The use of lines, therefore, was definitely planned, was the primary feature of the game and marked the first modification, and publication, of the rules for women. The division of the field in rules for women is now almost, if not quite, universal; the chief difference is the general arrangement of the lines and the number of players on the team.
In 1895, after a year's trial of the new rules at Newcomb, the game was published under the name, "Basquette," because, at that time, the changes were so radical as to make it appear "almost a new game."
During succeeding years, basket ball has undergone many changes and has been gradually developing elsewhere, as it has at Newcomb College, until we now have several modifications of the game for women, and more than one official guide for men.
Basket ball is a game that has added much to the athletic life of the country and it is destined to play an important part in the development of the youth of our land.
