Volley ball By: Jimmy. Park
History of volley ball • On February 9, 1895, in Holyoke, Massachusetts, one of the states in USA, William G. Morgan who was a PE teacher in YMCA, created a new game called Mintonette (the name of the volley ball in past time.) as a pastime to be played indoors and by any number of players. The game took some of characteristics from tennis and handball. Another indoor sport, basketball, was catching on in the area, having been invented just sixteen kilometers away in the city of Springfield, Massachusetts, only four years before. Mintonette was designed to be an indoor sport, less rough than basketball, for older members of the YMCA, while still requiring a bit of athletic effort.
