Neither was a world champion, neither was an Olympic medallist, but each in his own way transformed the sports world. Both were pioneers in the development of physical education as a serious academic discipline. James Naismith contributed his own invention, basketball, to the modern world. R. Tait McKenzie left a timeless legacy in his considerable body of work in bronze sculpture, especially of athletic subjects.
