The History
(britannica.com/sports/volleyball)

Volleyball

Invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan, a physical director of the Young

Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It was designed as
an indoor sport for business people who found the new basketball game too
vigorous. Morgan called Mintonette, until a professor from Springfield College in
Massachusetts noted the volleying nature of play and proposed the name
"volleyball."
The original rules were written by Morgan and printed in the first edition, of the
Official Handbook of the Athletic League of the Young Men’s Christian Associations
of North America (1897).
In 1916, the rules were issued jointly by the YMCA and the National
Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The first nationwide tournament in the US
was conducted by the National YMCA Physical Education Committee in New York
City in 1922. The United States Volleyball Association (USVBA) was formed in 1928
and recognized as the rules-making, governing body in the U.S.
From 1928, USVBA, known as "USA Volleyball (USAV)," conducted annual
national men’s and senior men’s and senior men’s volleyball championships, except
during 1944 and 1945. Its women's division was started in 1949, and the senior
women's division was added in 1947.

 Volleyball sport was introduced into Europe by American troops during World
War I, when National Organizations were formed. The Federation Internationale de
Volley Ball (FIVB) was organized in Paris in 1947 and moved to Lausanne,
Switzerland, in 1984. The USVUBA was one of the 13 Charter members of the FIVB,
whose membership grow to more than 210 member countries by the late 20 th
century.

Development

This game is played by two teams of 6 or 9 players in each team to keep the
ball away from its own court without committing an error or fault. The players place
or spike the ball into the opponent's court to make them drop the ball or commit
faults.
Two or three in each team may play the game. However, no game is
considered official or valid for record purposes until each team has the correct
number of players, which is either 6 or 9.
There are two types of plating rules. There are some examples of rules. Far
Eastern Rule (9-man) and the International Rule (6-man), the nine-man- the team is
used in the Far East, including the Philippines, Japan, China, Korea, Malaysia, and
India. In the world competition or the Olympics, the 6-man rules are observed.
Lately, the Asian countries have decided to use the 6-man rule in their volleyball
competition.
In local competitions, the 9-man type is still the vogue because it is more
popular and easier to play. In the Philippine Normal College, the 9-man rule is
followed in the in the intramural program. Still, the 6-man rule is observed in
preparation for the State College Athletic Association and national meets. The
Philippine Amateur Volleyball Association (PAVA), the national association that takes
care of Volleyball's development and improvement in the country, emphasizes the 6-
man in all its games.

The difference between the two rules as as ff.:

Fundamental Skills
The fundamentals or basic skills to be developed by a prospective player are
serving, receiving, tossing, spiking, and blocking. The taller the player is, the more
advantage he has over others, and a good jumper is a better asset than one who
can't jump well. Blocking and spiking are most effective when the player goes much
higher than the net.
Sports
a.) Serving- is the means to start the game or continue it after a point has been
made or a side-out has been declared.
3 Types of Service:
o Underhand
o Sidearm
o Overhand

Underhand Service- emphasizes the idea that the ball is to be hit with the hand down
below.
Sidearm Service shows the server hitting the ball on a shoulder level or just a little
below.
Overhand Service- shows that the ball is to be batted while it is level with the head or
a little above.
o Floater- is batted in the same way as the drop, but in this case, there is no
spin or English imported onto the ball, so the ball goes floating straight ahead,
in almost a horizontal plane.
b.) Receiving- when the ream is being served at, they are said to be on "serve
receive." Players are required to remain in their rotation home before the
service will the server contacts the ball. (www.google.com)
c.) Tossing- the ball must be thrown up into the air approximately 20 inches. The
hitting hand is drawn back as the ball is thrown up by bending it at the elbow
and then bringing it forward to connect with the ball. (sportsdefinitions.com)
d.) Spiking- is a strategy used to send the ball over the net to the opponent so
that ball is not returnable.

3
 - It is performed by moving the arm so that you angle the ball to land
on the ground of your opponent's side of the court. (strength-and-
power-for-volleyball.com)
e.) Blocking- deflecting the ball coming from your opponent’s attack hit.
- The technique used to deflect the ball coming from an attacker.
