The round hoop is made of steel, the netting is a woven nylon fiber. The first basket for Basketball was literally a basket. A peach basket to be specific. A ladder was used to retrieve the ball after a shot was made. Later a pole was utilized to poke the ball back out.

The first basket ball hoop wasnt actually a hoop. It was a peach basket!!!! during games, someone had to sit next to the basket so they could throw the ball back to the players!!!

The first basketballs were made from panels of leather stitched together with a rubber bladder inside.

The very first basketballs used were actually just soccer balls.

The first basketball hoops were peach baskets attached to the walls of the YMCA. This sport was created that way and only one person scored when they played the first basketball game lol

The first basketball goal was made out of a basket, just an ordinary basket that you would find in your house.
