William G. Morgan was the man who invented volleyball. If that is all you want to know about volleyball, exit out. If you want to learn more, keep reading.

Morgan used four different sports-Basketball, Baseball, handball and tennis to invent volleyball. He invented the game because he believed basketball was too rough for businessmen. There are two different kinds of volleyball-indoor volleyball and beach volleyball. Indoor volleyball was first introduced to the Olympics in the 1890s. Beach volleyball was introduced in the Olympics about four years later. An ace is when team one hits the ball and the other team fails to retrieve it. A server is at the back left corner. They hold the ball with their non-dominant hand and then hit it with their dominant hand. Make sure your dominant hand is in a fist, and try to always hit the ball with the heel of the hand.
