Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Ms. Mariana Young introduced American-style physical education at Nagasaki Kwassui girl’s school. They used wooden circles, sticks and dumbbells, and every word of command was spoken in English in tune with the music by training Japanese women as physical education instructors. In the meantime, looking specifically at the revisions of the rules for the basketball goal by tracing AAU Official Basket Ball Rules housed at the Archives Center, Springfield College, the birthplace of basketball, all they had in the year 1895-96 was the basket, and then in the year 1896-97 and after, a wire mesh called a SCREEN was placed behind each basket as was also shown in the court plan. It was also revealed that the currently used flat-board-style backboard was first adopted in the 1904-05 rules. By magnifying and observing the picture of a basketball goal installed at the outdoor playing field of Nagasaki Kwassui girl’s school, it was confirmed that wire mesh was fitted onto a wooden frame. Thus, the basketball goal of Nagasaki Kwassui girl’s school that had been photographed in 1902 was identified as a SCREEN before the backboard was adopted.

Strategy for Future Research Activity |
活水学院資料室の耐震工事が完了し、資料室使用が可能となったら、史料の再確認を行うとともに、オハイオウェスレヤン大学およびスプリングフィールドカレッジで収集した史料の解析を進めながら、報告書作成を完了する。
|
Causes of Carryover |
調査訪問予定をしていた活水学院資料室が耐震工事のため研究期間中に使用できなくなり、訪問することができず、研究報告書を完了するに至らなかったため。
|
Expenditure Plan for Carryover Budget |
活水学院資料室を訪問し、再調査を実施した後、研究報告書を作成する。また、場合によっては成果発表のため学会旅費、もしくは投稿論文作成費として使用する。
