Team History

Initially originating from Chicago, in 1920s, the Harlem Globetrotters were one of the most successful competitive basketball clubs in the country. They began playing as Chicago Globe Trotters and eventually became the Harlem Globetrotters in 1929. The team participated in highly competitive tournaments and won the ‘World Professional Basketball Tournament' in 1940. However, after the rise of National Basketball Association, the team started incorporating comedic routines in their game play and became known more for entertainment than sports. For the next several decades, the team continued to indulge in competitive as well as exhibition basketball. There were several official Globetrotters teams playing around the world simultaneously, in order to entertain wider fan base. In 1993, under the ownership of Mannie Jackson, the Globetrotters slowly returned to competitive basketball. In 1995, their alleged winning streak of 8829 games came to an end when the team lost to Kareem Abdul Jabbar's All Star.
