Volleyball was invented in 1895 byWilliam G. Morgan, physical director of

theYoung Men’s Christian Association(YMCA) inHolyoke, Massachusetts. It

from Springfield College inMassachusettsnoted the volleying nature of play and

proposed the name of “volleyball.” The original rules were written by Morgan and

printed in the first edition of theOfficial Handbook of the Athletic League of the

Young Men’s Christian Associations of North America(1897). The game soon

The game soon proved to have wide appeal for both sexes in schools, playgrounds, the armed forces, and other organizations in the United States, and it was subsequently introduced to other countries.

1900 - In the year 1900, Volleyball was popular enough that a new ball was customized for the sport. Five years later, Volleyball also spread to Cuba. This international signified the start of the Volleyball era. In 1907, Volleyball was presented at the Playground of America convention as one of the most popular sports.
1916 - In 1916, in the Philippines, an offensive style of passing the ball in a high trajectory to be struck by another player (the set and spike) were introduced. In 1917, the game was changed from 21 to 15 points. In 1920, three hits per side and back row attack rules were instituted.
In 1917 , the scoring system per game was changed from 21 to 15 points , while in 1920 the rule stipulating a maximum of three hits per team was

instituted. Until the early 1930s volleyball was for the most part a game of leisure and recreation, and there were only a few international activities and competitions

1920: The ball could be played by any part of the body above the waist. The court size was changed to 30 feet by 60 feet.
1922 : The first YMCA national championships were held in Brooklyn, NY. 27 teams from 11 states were represented.  1928: It became clear that tournaments and rules were needed, the United States Volleyball Association (USVBA, now USA Volleyball) was formed. The first U.S. Open was staged, as the field was open to non-YMCA squads.  1930s: The first two-man beach volleyball game is played in Santa Monica, California.  1934: The approval and recognition of national volleyball referees.  1937: At the AAU convention in Boston, action was taken to recognize the U.S. Volleyball Association as the official National Governing Body (NGB) in the U.S.  1947: The Federation International De Volleyball (FIVB) was founded.  1948: The first two-man beach tournament was held.  1949: The initial World Championships were held in Prague, Czechoslovakia.  1964: Volleyball was introduced to the Olympic Games in Tokyo.  1965: The California Beach Volleyball Association (CBVA) was formed.  1974: The World Championships in Mexico were telecast in Japan.  1975: The U.S. National Women’s team began a year-round training regime in Pasadena, Texas (moved to Colorado Springs in 1979, Coto de Caza and Fountain Valley, CA in 1980, and San Diego, CA in 1985).

 2000: Olympic Beach Volleyball Men’s Gold medallists: Eric Fomoimoana & Dain Blanton (USA). The women’s Beach Volleyball America (BVA) announces their inaugural season of play.  2001: Christopher “Sinjin” Smith plays the final match of his impressive career, a 21-19 and 24-22 loss with George Roumain to Dax Holdren and Todd Rogers in the 4th round of the contender’s bracket at the AVP Manhattan Beach Open. Sinjin retires as the leader in tournaments played with 416, 2nd in all-time victories with 139, and 4th in all-time winnings with over US$1.6 million earned.  2002: Beach volleyball court dimensions reduced to 8m x 8m per side.  2003: Karch Kiraly becomes the first player to earn US$3M in prize money and oldest player to win an AVP tournament at age 42 years, 9 months and 14 days. (You’re never too old for volleyball!)  2004: U.S. Women’s team Kerri Walsh and Misty May Win the Gold medal in the Women’s Olympic Beach Volleyball Title in Athens, Greece.  2005: Olympic gold medalists Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor win their second Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) Open women’s title and the 2005 overall women’s championship.  2006: Elaine Youngs’ second place finish (with Rachel Wacholder) in Seaside Heights pushes her career earnings past $1 million. She becomes the third American woman to achieve that mark.  2006: In Seaside Heights, both Casey Jennings (with Matt Fuerbringer) and Kerri Walsh (with Misty May-Treanor) won titles, becoming just the second husband-wife duo to win pro beach events on the same weekend. They join Mike and Patty Dodd, who accomplished the feat four times in 1989, but each time in different locations.

 2006: Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor win in Chicago as Walsh joins the millionaire club. She is the 18th person worldwide to win over $ million in her career, and did so in fewer events (90th tournament) as well as being one of just four to reach the mark before turning 28 years old.  2007: Misty May-Treanor passes Brazilians Adriana Behar and Shelda Bede as the most winning player since the women’s competition on the international beach volleyball circuit began in 1992.  2007: Misty May-Treanor becomes the women’s all-time wins leader by capturing her 73rd victory, surpassing Holly McPeak’s record by winning with Kerri Walsh in Hermosa Beach. She reached this total in just 123 tournaments — winning 57.5% of her events.  2007: In a championship match that lasted 1:41, Nicole Branagh and Elaine Youngs defeat Jennifer Boss and April Ross 21-19, 18-21, 16-14 in Seaside Heights. The marathon set the record for the longest match in rally scoring, men or women, in domestic or international play.  2007: Karch Kiraly retires to close an impressive career on the beach, leaving as the all-time wins leader and money earner. His longevity was marked by the fact he won a tournament in 24 different years, and he advanced to the semifinals in over 75% of all the events he ever played and was named as the AVP’s MVP a record-most six times.  2008: Hot Winter Nights, a series of 19 events in January and February, kicks off in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma marking the first ever indoor beach volleyball tour. Mark Williams and Nancy Mason are the first winners in the “King of the Beach format” events.  2008: The U.S. Women’s Volleyball team wins Silver at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China.
