Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of
articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Two
popular American sports were invented in New England. Basketball
was invented by James Naismith in Springfield, Massachusetts, in
1891. Volleyball was invented by William G. Morgan in Holyoke,
Massachusetts, in 1895. Also, the first American hockey game was
played in Connecticut. The region is famous for its passion for
baseball and the Boston Red Sox, as well as for the intense rivalry
between the Red Sox and the New York Yankees. On November 1, 1924,
the Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League became the first
NHL franchise to be based in the United States, and the second
oldest surviving major professional sports team in Boston, after
the Red Sox. The Bruins' historic rivalry with the Montreal
Canadiens for ice hockey fans in the Boston area has, at times,
reached the level of intensity of the Yankees - Red Sox rivalry in
professional baseball in the region.
