Volleyball owes a lot of its growth in the 1940's and 1950's to soldiers in World War 2.
The YMCA taught the sport to soldiers placed in Germany, Italy, and Japan in order to
help spread Christianity worldwide. The soldiers also taught the sport to their friends
and family when they returned home.

Lesson 1: History and Development of Volleyball Worldwide

History

William G. Morgan (1870-1942), who was born in the State of New York, has gone down
in history as the inventor of the game of volleyball, to which he originally gave the
name "Mintonette".

The young Morgan carried out his undergraduate studies at the Springfield College of
the YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) where he met James Naismith who, in
1891, had invented basketball. After graduating, Morgan spent his first year at the
Auburn (Maine) YMCA after which, during the summer of 1895, he moved to the YMCA

Page | 6
at Holyoke (Massachusetts) where he became director of physical education. In this role he had the
opportunity to establish, develop and direct a vast program of exercises and sport classes for male adults.

His leadership was enthusiastically accepted, and his classes grew in numbers. He came to realize that he
needed a certain type of competitive recreational game to vary his program. Basketball, a sport that was
beginning to develop, seemed to suit young people, but it was necessary to find a less violent and less
intense alternative for the older members.

At that time Morgan knew of no similar game to volleyball which could guide him; he developed it from his
own sports training methods and his practical experience in the YMCA gymnasium. Describing his first
experiments he said, "In search of an appropriate game, tennis occurred to me, but this required rackets,
balls, a net and other equipment, so it was eliminated, but the idea of a net seemed a good one. We raised
it to a height of about 6 feet, 6 inches (1.98 meters) from the ground, just above the head of an average
man. We needed a ball and among those we tried was a basketball bladder, but this was too light and too
slow. We therefore tried the basketball itself, which was too big and too heavy."

In the end, Morgan asked the firm of A.G. Spalding & Bros. to make a ball, which they did at their factory
near Chicopee, in Massachusetts. The result was satisfactory: the ball was leather-covered, with a rubber
inner tube, its circumference was not less than 25 and not more than 27 inches (63.5 cm and 68.6 cm,
respectively), and its weight not less than 9 and not more than 12 ounces (252 gr and 336 gr, respectively).

Morgan asked two of his friends from Holyoke, Dr. Frank Wood and John Lynch, to draw up (based on his
suggestions) the basic concepts of the game together with the first 10 rules.

Early in 1896 a conference was organized at the YMCA College in Springfield, bringing together all the YMCA
Directors of Physical Education. Dr. Luther Halsey Gulick, director of the professional physical education
training school (and executive director of the department of physical education of the International
Committee of YMCA's) invited Morgan to make a demonstration of his game in the new college stadium.
Morgan took two teams, each made up of five men (and some loyal fans) to Springfield, where the
demonstration was made before the conference delegates in the east gymnasium. The captain of one of the
teams was J.J. Curran and of the other John Lynch who were respectively, mayor and chief of the fire
brigade of Holyoke.

Morgan explained that the new game was designed for gymnasia or exercise halls but could also be played in
open air. An unlimited number of players could participate, the object of the game being to keep the ball in
movement over a high net, from one side to the other.

After seeing the demonstration, and hearing the explanation of Morgan, Professor Alfred T. Halstead called
attention to the action, or the act phase, of the ball's flight, and proposed that the name "Mintonette" be
replaced by "Volley Ball." This name was accepted by Morgan and the conference. (It is interesting to note
that the same name has survived over the years, with one slight alteration: in 1952, the Administrative
Committee of the USVBA voted to spell the name with one word, "Volleyball", but continued to use USVBA to
signify United States Volleyball Association).

FIVB (Federation Internationale de Volleyball)

A decisive moment in the history of volleyball’s first 100 years was certainly that of
the founding of the FIVB (Federation Internationale de Volleyball) when in April 1947
representatives of 14 countries (Belgium, Brazil, Czechoslovakia, Egypt, France,
Netherlands, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Uruguay, USA and
Yugoslavia) met in Paris under the leadership of France’s Paul Libaud to found the
FIVB. Mr. Libaud, President of the French Federation, was elected first President of
the FIVB. The headquarters were established in Paris, where they remained for the
first 37 years until 1984 when Mexico’s Dr. Rubén Acosta took over the Presidency
from Libaud.

The history of volleyball in the Philippines refers to the history of volleyball in the Philippines as a recreation
and as a sport. Philippine volleyball history began in 1910 when the Philippines was
a United States territory (1898–1946). The Filipinos have made significant
contributions to volleyball in its evolution as a professional and international game.
The Filipinos continued playing volleyball up to the modern-day period in its status
as an independent republic (1946–present).

It was introduced to the Filipinos by an American named Elwood S. Brown, the then
Physical Director of the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA). It became a
popular game held in backyards and at beaches in the islands. At first, the Filipinos
invented their own rules for the game. US soldiers who were assigned to the
different islands of the Philippine during the period also helped in the widespread
introduction of volleyball to the Filipinos. These American military servicemen
encouraged the Filipinos to join them in playing during their time-off from military
duties. Early in the history of the game of volleyball in the Philippines, the Filipinos used trees as makeshift net
holders (the net was hung between the two chosen trees).

Objectives of Volleyball

1. Volley the ball over the net

2. Pass the ball to a teammate
3. Serve the ball over the net
4. Assist at the net
5. Set up the ball
6. Know the fundamental rules of the game

Natures and Characteristics of Volleyball

• Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. Each team tries to
score points by grounding a ball on the other team’s court under organized rules.
• How it is played: You can score points in the game of volleyball in one of two ways
• Putting the ball on the floor in-bounds on your opponent’s side of the net.

Page | 8
 • An error (forced or unforced) by your opponent which renders them unable to return the ball over the net
and in-bounds on your side in their allotted three contacts.
• The sport of volleyball is one of the most malleable sports around because it is played in many
variations and on many different surfaces. Add to that the frequent rule changes, and it is increasingly
difficult to keep track of it all. But here is a brief overview:

Teams

• You can play volleyball in teams with anywhere

between two and six players. Indoor volleyball is
usually played with six players on each team. Beach
volleyball is often played with two players. Four-person
volleyball is often in grass tournaments and on the
beach.

Variations

• You can pay on hardwood, grass, sand, or asphalt. You

can use rally or side-out scoring.
You can play one game or the best of three or best of five sets. You can play to 15, 25, 30, or whatever
number of points you so desire.

Play

• Play begins with one team serving the ball to the other. Each time the ball crosses over the net, a team
gets three contacts before they must send the ball back to the opponent’s side. Ideally, the three contacts
will be a pass, set and hit, but it can be three passes or any other combination of contacts if they are legal
contacts.
• The rally (or volley) continues until the ground or one of the rules is broken.

Direction: Arrange the following events in the history and development of Volleyball to its proper order.
Write the numbers 1 to 5 on the space provided for.

________1. The game Volleyball was introduced in the Philippines by Mr. E.S. Brown,
a Physical Director of the YMCA.

________2. The game was first played at Holyoke, Massachusetts and it was called
Mintonette.
________3. In 1900 onwards, the USA and Canada adopted and made it a real leisure
sport. The YMCA was the main contributor to the development of volleyball worldwide.
________4. Dr. Alfred T. Halstead suggested to Morgan that a better name for the sport
than Mintonette would be “Volley Ball” (originally two words until 1952, when it was
officially changed to one word) as obviously the game primarily consisted of volleying a
ball back and forth.
________5. Volleyball made its Olympic debut at the 1964 Games in Tokyo. Featuring both women’s and
men’s events, the sport got off to a strong start, with hosts Japan and the Soviet Union winning the women’s
and men’s events, respectively.

LESSON 2: Facilities and Equipment

Facilities and Equipment

1. The Ball
- The standard volleyball is made of leather or synthetic leather weighs
between 9 and 10 ounces and has a circumference of 25.6 to 26.4
inches. The ball has a rubber bladder and can be one color or a
combination of colors. Synthetic leather is lighter and is fine for
beginner players. Junior volleyballs for children 12 years old and
younger weigh between 7 and 8 ounces.
2. The Net and Court
- The outdoor volleyball court measures 18m x 9m, surrounded by a free zone that is 2 meters wide on
all sides. The minimum playing space for US volleyball competitions is 7 meters. The volleyball net is
32 feet long and 3 feet wide. For women, the net should be 7 feet, 4 1/8 inches. For men, the net should
be 7 feet, 11 5/8 inches high. US regulation volleyball playing surfaces must be flat and not present any
hazards to the players.
3. Lines
- The playing court is marked by two sidelines and two end lines. All lines must be 2 inches wide and
must be created with a light color that is easy to discern from the playing court. An attack line
should be placed three meters from the centerline. The centerline divides the court into two 9x9
meter courts.
4. Posts and Cables
The volleyball net structure is held together with metal cables and posts. Posts are placed 0.5 to 1.0
meters outside the sidelines and 2.55 meters high. Posts should be round, smooth and padded, to prevent
injury to the players should they dive or crash into them. Metal wires and cables may need to be covered
if it is determined that they present a danger to the players.
5. Antenna and Side Bands
Antennas are flexible rods that are 1.8 meters long made of fiberglass, fastened at the outer edge of each
sideband. Sidebands are two white bands attached vertically to the net and placed above each sideline.

Page | 12
6. Knee pads
- Knee pads should be sturdy enough to protect your knees from falls, slides, and dives, but flexible
enough to allow you to bend comfortably.

7. Shoes
Arch and ankle support is key when choosing a volleyball shoe. Mizuno, Asics, and Nike are just a few
of the popular brands of volleyball shoes, which are lightweight, allowing you to be faster on your feet.

8. Clothing and Jewelry

All clothing should be lightweight to allow maximum flexibility and breathability, Spandex shorts
are a good option, as they are flexible, light and absorb odor. Socks absorb sweat and prevent
blisters. Glasses must be worn with a strap to keep them secure.

Volleyball's most fertile ground was found in the Philippines, where Elwood S. Brown of the YMCA
introduced it into the Public-School System in 1910. By 1914, there were more than 5,000 courts in public
schools, playgrounds, and private clubs in the Philippines, and it was here that the "Filipino Bomb" or
first version of the modern spike was unleashed. Other innovations were adopted. After one team set the
ball back and forth among themselves 52 times before hitting it over the net, the local rules committee
observing the game demanded the first three-hit rule. It seems that a pressing dinner engagement of one
of the attendant officials was only one motivation - a stronger one was that of the opposing team which
threatened to walk off the court and go home. The rule was quickly adopted throughout the Orient.

Trivia!
The Floater serve is very similar to a knuckleball in baseball. Its unpredictable movement
can cause the opposing team to fall over trying to hit it.

LESSON 6: Referee Signals for Volleyball

In Volleyball, there are generally 2 officials. The first referee

directs the game from a stand and a second referee stands on the
opposite near the net. A whistle is blown to initiate and to end
each play. The official will first signal the fault or cause of the
play ends, and then signal which team won the point. This is the
summary of the hand signals that accompany the whistles.
