1. Who introduced the Volleyball game?


- William G. Morgan
Volleyball has come a long way from the dusty-old YMCA gymnasium of
Holyoke, Massachusetts, USA, where the visionary William
G. Morgan invented the sport back in 1895. It has seen the start of two
centuries and the dawn of a new millennium.

2. The year when Volleyball was introduced.


- 1895
3. The place where Volleyball was introduced.
- Holyoke, Massachusetts.
4. The first net used when Volleyball was developed.
- The first volleyball net, borrowed from tennis, was only 6’6″ high (though
you need to remember that the average American was shorter in the
nineteenth century).
5. The first ball used when Volleyball was developed.
- Spalding Ball
near Chicopee, Massachusetts to make him a special ball for the game.
They created a ball in 1900 consisting of three layers. The first was a latex
bladder made from material like a bicycle tire, the second was a
cheesecloth material around the bladder, and the third was a leather outer
layer.

6. The year when a special ball was designed for the sport. Point system was
adopted (21 pts. Per game)
- The Early Years 1895 - 1925
During this period, a match was played across nine innings with each player
getting to serve at least once per inning. If the opposition managed to
return the ball, the server was out and the next player would serve. If the
opposition were unable to return the serve, the serving team scored a
point. The team with the most points at the end of nine innings would win
the match.
In 1900, the use of innings was removed and service changed between
teams whenever the receiving team sided-out (which means winning a rally
that was served by the opposition). Serving teams continued to score a
point if they won a rally. The winning team were the first to reach 21
points.
In 1916, the number of points required to win a game was reduced to 15.
This was also the year that the best of three sets1 format was introduced to
decide who won a match.
In 1922, if teams became tied at 14-14, a set continued until a team won
two consecutive points.
In 1925, the side-out scoring system was standardised 2 with the winners
being the first team to win three out of five sets. The two consecutive
points rule was replaced by a two-point advantage.
The Wilderness Years 1926-1988

During the next 60 years nothing changed with the scoring system in
volleyball.
The Demise of Side-out Scoring 1989 - 1999

With increased pressure to make sports attractive to television networks,


volleyball bowed and changed the deciding fifth sets to use rally-point
scoring (aka 'quickscore'). Where previously teams could only score a point
on their own serve, teams now won a point if they won a rally. The first
four sets continued to use side-out scoring.
In addition to the introduction of rally-point scoring, all the sets became
capped at 17 points. This meant that while teams still only needed to score
a minimum of 15 points by two clear points to win a set, if the score
reached 16-16, the winner of the next point would win the set (ie, 17-16).
In 1992, following the Barcelona Olympic Games, the 17-point cap was
removed from the deciding fifth set. It still remained in the first four.
At the beginning of 1998, the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (the
FIVB - the international controlling body for volleyball) introduced rally
point scoring to all sets. The first four sets were to be played to a minimum
of 25 points and two clear, while the fifth set remained at 15 and two clear.
The era of side-out scoring had ended.
Scoring at the Beach

Beach volleyball began in the 1920s and, like indoor volleyball, it employed
the side-out scoring system. As beach volleyball is usually played in pairs it
is much easier to win the rally when receiving service and therefore points
are harder to come by. For this reason matches tended to be played over
one set, typically scored to 12 points. Sometimes to restrict the length of
the game a time limit would be used. If neither team had won enough
points the winners would be those ahead at a predetermined time.
In beach competitions, a double elimination format is often used; this is a
type of knockout system where teams get a second chance. When they
have been knocked out once they then go into a loser's bracket and can still
reach the final via this route. Once they have lost a second match the
tournament is over for them. If they can win all their games in the losers
bracket they meet a team in the final who also won all their games this far.
In the final of the tournament you would expect the winner to be the team
to win the set. However this isn't the case.
 If the undefeated team win the set, they win the tournament.
 If the previously defeated team win the set, another set is played to seven
points. The winner of this set wins the tournament.
