1. HISTORY

Volleyball is a fast-paced team sport with two very distinct identities.

Indoor and beach volleyball are both played on a court. The primary
objective in both indoor and beach volleyball is to prevent the ball from
bouncing in your team's half of the court while trying to make it land in the
other team's court.

William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian

Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Massachusetts invented the
game called “mintonette,” in 1895, after the invention of
basketball (James Naismith) only four years before. Morgan, a
graduate of the Springfield College of the YMCA, designed the
game to be a combination of basketball, baseball, tennis, and
handball. In the year 1896, the name “mintonette” was changed to
Volleyball by the YMCA President, Alfred Halstead.

The offensive style of setting and spiking was first demonstrated in

the Philippines in 1916. Over the years that followed, it became
clear that standard rules were needed for tournament play, and
thus the USVBA (United States Volleyball Association) was
formed in 1928. In 1947, the Federation Internationale De Volley-
Ball (FIVB) was founded.
