basketball, handball, and roller hockey facilities were built. Willow oaks (Quercus phellos) and linden trees (Tilia spp.)

Basketball is a team sport in which two teams of five players try to score points by throwing or "shooting"
a ball through the top of a basketball hoop while following a set of rules. Basketball is one of the world's
most popular and widely viewed sports.
While competitive basketball is carefully regulated, numerous variations of basketball have developed for casual play.
Competitive basketball is primarily an indoor sport played on carefully marked and maintained basketball courts, but less
regulated variations are often played outdoors in both inner city and rural areas.
