Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decides to blend elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than basketball. He creates the game of Volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrows the net from tennis, and raises it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man's head. There are unconfirmed whispers of men’s teams playing on the beach in Hawaii, but most accounts place the sport's origin in Santa Monica, California where the first Volleyball courts are put up on the beach at the Playground. Families play 6 vs. 6. Beach Volleyball crosses the Atlantic Ocean. It becomes the principal sport in a French nudist camp founded in Franconville, a north-western suburb of Paris. The first two-man beach volleyball game is played in Santa Monica, California. Beach volleyball appears in Palavas, Lacanau and Royan (France), around Sofia (Bulgaria), Prague (Czechoslavakia), and Riga (Latvia).

    Extractions: OLYMPIC HISTORY The duel for supremacy of the sport between Russia and Japan was fierce right through to the 1980s. Among men, the US then won the 1984 and 1988 titles. A leading member of that 1988 winning team was Karch Kiraly, who in 1996 became Olympic champion in the inaugural beach volleyball tournament. The most medalled player ever is Inna Ryskal, of the Soviet Union, who won two gold and two silver medals between 1964 and 1976. New elements for the sport in Sydney are the introduction of the libero, a back-row substitute who will wear a different coloured shirt from those of his or her team-mates, and the fact that a point will now be up for the taking in every rally, replacing the traditional system in which only the serving team could earn one. In Sydney, Italy, The Netherlands and Cuba are favourites for the men's title, while Mireya Luis Hernandez, whose skills brought her the Knickname "the spiker with wings", and Magalys Carvajal, of defending team Cuba, are the players to beat among women, with Russia, China and Brazil the threat.

    Extractions: Dr. Stelzer's Site Home Up VOLLEYBALL History Designed as an indoor sport for businessmen who found the new game of basketball too vigorous, volleyball was invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan, physical director of the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass. He called it "mintonette," until a professor from Springfield College (Springfield, Mass.), noting the volleying nature of play, proposed the name of " volleyball ." The first 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). The game soon proved to have wide appeal for both sexes in schools, playgrounds, the armed forces, and other organizations in the United States , and it was subsequently introduced to other countries. In 1916 rules were issued jointly by the YMCA and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The first national U.S. tournament 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 United States. From 1928 the USVBAnow known as USA
