Volleyball and Its History

Abstract

Volleyball is a popular game in many countries around the world. Volleyball was first played in the United States of America. In 1895, William Morgan, a teacher of physical education at a college in Heliok, Massachusetts, offered students a new entertaining game, the main idea of which was that the players hit the ball with their hands, making it fly over the net. The game was called "volleyball", which in English means a flying ball. In 1897, the sports rules of this game were developed, which were repeatedly changed and supplemented. A simple game that does not require expensive equipment spread very quickly in Japan, China, the Philippines, and later in Europe.
