The first true sports thing that man invented(發明)was the ball.

    In ancient Egypt, throwing stones was a favorite children's game. But a badly thrown stone could hurt a child. When the Egyptians were looking for something less dangerous to throw, they made what were maybe the first balls.

    At first, balls were made of grass or leaves held together by vines. Later they were made of piece of animal skin sewed(縫)together and filled with feather and dry grass.

    Through the Egyptians like wars, they found time for peaceful games. Soon they had developed a number of ball games. Each game had its own rules(規則).Maybe they played ball more for instruction than fun. Ball playing was thought of mainly as a way to teach young men the speed(速度)and skill(技巧)they would need for war.
