The
history of volleyball
Volleyball is a sport with a long
and rich history. The game was invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan, a
physical education teacher at the YMCA in Holyoke, Massachusetts. Morgan
designed the game to be a less strenuous alternative to basketball.
Volleyball quickly gained popularity, and by 1900, there were already more than
1,000 YMCA clubs playing the game across the United States. The first official
volleyball tournament was held in 1912 at the Summer Olympics in Stockholm,
Sweden.
Since its inception, volleyball has grown to become one of the most popular
sports in the world. Today, there are more than 800 million people worldwide
who play volleyball on a regular basis.
The
rules of volleyball
Volleyball is a sport with simple
rules that are easy to understand and follow. The basic objective of the game
is to score points by grounded the ball on your opponent’s court, or by forcing
your opponent to make an error. Volleyball can be played with two teams of
three players each, or four players each. The game is played on a rectangular
court measuring 60 feet by 30 feet, and there is a net placed across the center
of the court, dividing it into two halves.
The teams start on opposite sides of the net, and each team has three hits to
return the ball to their opponents’ side. When the ball is hit over the net, it
must be returned before it hits the ground on your side of the court. Players
are not allowed to carry or double-hit the ball, and must keep it within bounds
at all times. The game is won by whichever team scores 25 points first (or
whichever team has more points when time expires).
There are a few other important rules to know in volleyball:
-The serve must be made from behind the end line, and must go over the net into
your opponent’s service zone.
-A player can only serve for one point per turn.
-After a team scores a point, they get to keep serving until they lose their
point.
-If the ball touches any part of the net while going over (except for during a
block
