    Extractions: http://www.Volleyball.ORG Early 1920s Beach volleyball became the principal sport in a French nudist camp founded in Franconville (north-western suburb of Paris). First two-man beach volleyball game was played in Santa Monica, California. Beach volleyball appeared in Palavas, Lacanau and Royan (France), around Sofia (Bulgaria), Prague (Czechoslavakia), and Riga (Latvia). In the US, people would escape the depression by going to the beach, 4 vs 4 and 3 vs 3 games were played. First official two-man beach tournament was held, at State Beach in California. It was organized by Holtzman and won by Saenez-Harris. Open tournaments held at five beaches in California. Santa Barbara State Corona Del Mar Laguna San Diego Beach volleyball became an entertainment show and Beauty Contests were included in the official program.

    Extractions: Bookmark Rate This Article: (222 Ratings) Many Americans do not realize just how popular volleyball is worldwide. It ranks in the top three for recreational and competitive sports (the only sport which is definitely ahead of it is soccer, or football, which soars above all other sports throughout the world). Ironically, it was in the US, where the sport still lags behind in popularity relative to the rest of the world, that volleyball was invented. Mintonette mania! The year was 1895, and at a YMCA in Holyoke, Mass., William G. Morgan came up with the game (originally called mintonette) as a combination of baseball, soccer, tennis, and basketball (which had been formally invented only four years before, although many scholars date the basic idea of basketball to the times of the ancient Aztecs). The name was changed to volleyball the following year when Springfield College hosted the first match under this new moniker. World domination The first quarter of the 20th century saw an explosion in interest in volleyball. The sport spread through North and South America, and then to Europe and Asia. In 1913, only 18 years after having been invented, volleyball was a part of the Far Eastern Games. Three years later, in the Phillipines, the set-and-spike offense style was developed, and to this day that remains a staple of volleyball play.

Organization Volleyball History 2004-04-14 17:53:00 From： In 1895, William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decided 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 created the game of volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrowed the net from tennis, and raised it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man's head. During a demonstration game, someone remarked to Morgan that the players seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps "volleyball"would be a more descriptive name for the sport. On July 7, 1896 at Springfield College the first game of "volleyball" was played. In 1895, game was invented in the USA by William G. Morgan.
