2. Volleyball is a game for all sorts of people,
that needs a net, ball, and optional knee pads.
Either if your indoors or outdoors, make sure
your on level grounds.
3. In the 1890s, the Italian volleyball game was
reached to Germany, when it was called
faustball. Faustball was played on a rectangular
shaped court divided down the middle into two
parts by a rope suspended above the floor.
4. Then in 1895, at one YMCA in a town called,
Holyoke, Massachusetts, a teacher, William G.
Morgan created his own, one of a kind version of
faustball.

5. The years went on, more people were interested
in volleyball. Finally in 1897, volleyball had it`s
rules printed. Back in 1928, the United States
Volleyball Association was discovered. Later on, it
held its first championships.
6. For important volleyball games,
players wear almost anything.
Comfortable shirts, jeans,
sweatpants and shorts are fine to
deal with.
7. Right after the Second World War, in
1947, the International Volleyball
Federation was put to together.
8. Back in 1964, another goal was
made as an achievement. Volleyball
is now officially an Olympic sport.
9. At any volleyball game the court is
in a rectangular shape. The
measure is right on the dot, fiftynine feet long and twenty-nine and
a half feet wide.
