About Springfield


Springfield is a pilgrimage place for any sports lover since it has the Basketball Hall of Fame. The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame pays tribute to the maker of the second most favorite sport in the world.

Did you know that James Naismith was a P.E teacher who was asked by the government to come up with an indoor game to keep the students occupied during long winters? In just two weeks, the genius of a man created basketball. Today, the Hall of Fame is named after him and houses many shooting challenges and live exhibitions.

Apart from basketball, the city is also famed for its nightlife since it has the Club Quarter, which is the largest district of nightclubs in the area.
