    Volleyball was created by William G. Morgan as a game called "Mintonette" played with long-handled rackets. It evolved over time with Elwood Brown introducing volleyball to the Philippines in 1910, the point and rotation systems being adapted in 1900 and 1912, and the game reaching its modern form with 6 players per team and an 8 foot net height by 1918 when it became an Olympic sport in 1964.
