Short History of Volleyball

The game of volleyball, originally called “mintonette,” was invented in 1895 by William
G. Morgan after the invention of basketball only four years before. Morgan, a graduate of
the Springfield College of the YMCA, designed the game to be a combination of
basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball. The first volleyball net, borrowed from tennis,
was only 6’6″ high (though you need to remember that the average American was
shorter in the nineteenth century).

The offensive style of setting and spiking was first demonstrated in the Philippines in
1916. Over the years that followed, it became clear that standard rules were needed for
tournament play, and thus the USVBA (United States Volleyball Association) was formed
in 1928.

Two years later, the first two-man beach volleyball game was played, though the
professional side of the sport did not emerge until much later. Not surprisingly, the first
beach volleyball association appeared in California (1965), and the professional players
united under the auspices of the AVP (American Volleyball Professionals) in 1983.

During the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, American men and women took gold and silver
medals in indoor volleyball competitions. Four years later at the Olympics in Korea, the
men once again scored gold. Starting in 1996, two-man beach volleyball was officially
introduced to the Olympics. Today, there are more than 800 million volleyball players
worldwide, 46 million of them in the U.S.

Timeline of Significant Volleyball Events

In 1900, a special ball was designed for the sport.

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) was 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 1922, the first YMCA national championships were held in Brooklyn, NY. Twenty-
seven teams from 11 states were represented.

In 1928, it became clear that tournaments and rules were needed, so 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.

In 1930, the first two-man beach game was played.

In 1934, national volleyball referees were approved and recognized.

In 1937, at the AAU convention in Boston, action was taken to recognize the U.S.
Volleyball Association as the official national governing body in the U.S.

In 1947, the Federation Internationale De Volley-Ball (FIVB) was founded.

In 1948, the first two-man beach tournament was held.

In 1949, the initial World Championships were held in Prague, Czechoslovakia.

In 1964, volleyball was introduced to the Olympic Games in Tokyo.

In 1974, the World Championships in Mexico were telecast in Japan.

In 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).

In 1977, the U.S. National Men’s Team began a year-round training regime in Dayton,
Ohio (moved to San Diego, CA, in 1981).

In 1983, the Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) was formed.

In 1984, the U.S. won their first medals at the Olympics in Los Angeles. The men won the
gold, and the women the silver.

In 1986, the Women’s Professional Volleyball Association (WPVA) was formed.

In 1988, the U.S. men repeated the gold in the Olympics in Korea.

In 1990, the World League was created.

In 1995, the sport of volleyball was 100 years old!

In 1996, two-person beach volleyball became an Olympic sport.

Basic Skills of Volleyball

1. Passing
Passing is simply getting the ball to someone else on your team after it’s been
served or hit over the net by the opposing team. It’s commonly thought of as the
most important skill in all of volleyball, because your team can’t return the ball
without a solid volleyball pass. Forearm volleyball passes are often used to direct
the ball in a controlled manner to a teammate, but overhead passing is another
option.
2. Setting
The setter has the most important position on the team, and is often the team
leader for this reason. It’s their job to make it easy for a teammate to get the ball
over the volleyball net, preferably with a spike that the other team can’t return.
The setting motion gets the ball hanging in the air, ready to be spiked by another
teammate with force.
3. Spiking
A real crowd-pleaser, spiking is the act of slamming the ball in a downward
motion across the volleyball net to the other team’s side of the court. When done
well, spiking is very difficult to return, which is why it’s an essential skill. A
proper spike will help accumulate points quickly.
4. Blocking
Blocking is another important skill, although it’s probably the most expendable
of the fundamentals. Still, it adds a great dimension to the game, keeping the
other team on their toes, so to speak. By timing it right, you can jump up and
deflect or block the opponent’s attack before it even crosses the volleyball net,
which can take them by surprise and give your team an easy point.
5. Digging
Digging is a defensive maneuver in volleyball that can save your team from an
offensive spike or attack. Your job is to keep the ball from hitting the floor, and
you do that by diving and passing the ball in a fluid motion. Unlike a typical pass,
you’ll probably be trying to recover the ball from a steep downward trajectory.
This is another great skill to have, but isn’t as important as passing, setting, or
spiking.
6. Serving
Our final fundamental skills is serving. How can you be a great volleyball player
without knowing how to serve? There are a variety of ways to serve, but you’ll
most often see the underhand or overhand serves.

Officiating Officials

Volleyball officials that make up the officiating crew are first referee, second referee,
scorekeeper, assistant scorer, and line judges.

The first referee is in charge from the beginning of the match until the end.

The first referee has authority over all other members of the officiating crew.

The first referee should talk to all the officiating crew members before the match
starts, going over any questions officials might have about their responsibilities.

The first referee should have a talk with the second referee before the match starts
discussing issues such as pre-match protocol and anything that will help the match run
more smoothly.

The second referee should establish a rapport with the scorekeeper and libero tracker.
If the scorer and libero tracker have a problem or don't understand something, they
should be comfortable enough to ask the second referee for help.

Scorekeeper - Volleyball officials

The scorekeeper's main job is to make sure the score is correct at all times. The
scorekeeper uses a score sheet to keep track of the game.

If there is a difference between the score on the score sheet and the visual score (flip
score, electronic scoreboard, etc.) the visual score should be changed to match the score
on the score sheet unless the mistake on the score sheet can be determined and
corrected.

One of the referees should check the accuracy of the score sheet at the end of each set.

Scorekeeper

Pre-match,

Before the match starts, the scorekeeper should fill in the pre-match info – team names,
starting line ups, etc.

During the match,

Records points when they are scored

Watches the servers and indicates immediately to the referees when a server has served
out of order. It's also good preventive officiating to watch teams rotation in case
assistance is needed for the second referee to determine the correct team alignment.
 Records player substitutions and team timeouts
 Records any sanctions
 Records all other events as instructed by the referees
 Records the final result of the set

In the case of a protest, after the first referee gives authorization, the scorekeeper lets
the game captain write a statement for protest on the score sheet.

After the match,

 Records the final result of the match


 Signs the score sheet

Assistant Scorer - Volleyball officials

The assistant scorer (or libero tracker) sits at the scorer's table next to the scorekeeper.

The assistant scorer's main function is to record libero replacements on to a libero


tracking sheet.
Assistant Scorer

 Notifies any fault with libero replacements


 Operates the manual scoreboard on the scorer's table
 Checks the score on the scoreboard with the score on the scoresheet

Line Judges - Volleyball officials

If only two line judges are used, they stand at the corner of the end line that is closest to
the right hand of each referee, diagonally from the corner.

The line judges watch the endline and sideline of their respective corners.

For FIVB and Official Competitions, four line judges are used. Each line judge stands in
the free zone 1 to 3 meters, lined up with the imaginary extension of their respective
line.

Line judge's main responsibility is to make signals to help out the referees in making
judgment calls.

Line judges may be instructed to use flags to make the signals.

The Line Judges Signal

 Ball "in" and "out" whenever the ball lands near the lines
 Touches of "out" balls by players receiving the ball
 Ball touching the antennae
 A served ball crossing the net outside the crossing space (the space between the
antennae's)
 Any player standing off the court at the moment of service
 Server foot faults
