 NATURE AND BACKGROUND
• Volleyball is a game played by two teams with six
players on each team. It is considered as the most
popular team sports all over the world, wherein the
players use their hands to bat a ball back and forth over
a high net. To prevent this, a player on the opposing
team bats the ball up and toward a teammate before it
touches the court surface that the teammate may then
volley it back across the net or bat it to a third teammate
who volleys it across the net.
 HISTORY
• Volleyball was invented by William G. Morgan in 1895.
He was a physical director of the Young Men’s Christian
Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Massachusetts.
• Morgan designed it as an indoor sport for businessmen
only because basketball is too vigorous for them. He
called the sport “mintonette,” until such there was a
professor from Springfield College in Massachusetts
noted the volleying nature of play and proposed the name
of ‘Volleyball.’
WILLIAM G. MORGAN
 HISTORY
• 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
Association of North America (1897). 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.
 HISTORY
• The first nationwide tournament in the United States was
conducted by the national YMCA physical Education Committee in
New York City in 1922. The United States Volleyball Association
(USVBA) was formed and recognized as the rules-making in 1928
and changed the name USVBA to USAV with the same year.
USAV has conducted annual national men’s and senior men’s
(age 35 and older) volleyball championships, except during 1944
and 1945.
• In 1949, started the women’s division and 1977 was added the
senior women’s division (age 30 and older).
 HISTORY
• American troops introduced the Volleyball into Europe during
World War I. In 1947, Federation Internationale de Volley Ball
(FIVB0 was organized in Paris and moved to Lausanne,
Switzerland in 1984.the USVBA was one of the 13 charter
members of the FIVB, whose membership grew to more than 210-
member countries by the late 20th century. International Volleyball
competition began in 1913 with the first Far East Games, in
Manila.
• During the early 1900s and continuing until after World War II,
Volleyball in Asia was played on a larger court, with a lower net,
and nine players on a team.
 HISTORY
• The FIVB-sponsored world volleyball championships (for men
only in 1949) and both men and women in 1952 that led to
acceptance of standardized playing rules and officiating. In 1964,
volleyball became an Olympic for both men and women held in
Tokyo.
• European championships were long dominated by
Czechoslovakian, Hungarian, Polish, Bulgarian, Romanian, and
Soviet (later, Russian) teams. At the world and Olympic level,
Soviet teams have won more titles for both men’s and women’s
than those of any other nation. Their success was attributed to
widespread grassroots interest and well-organized play and
instruction at all levels of skill.
 HISTORY
• Olympic champions in 1946 were the Japanese women’s
team because of their free time to conditioning, team practice,
and condition under expert and demanding coaching. This
women’s team made its mark in international competition,
winning the world championship in 1962, 1966, and 1967, in
addition to the 1964 Olympics because of the encouragement
by the Japanese Volleyball Association.
• At the end of the 20th century, the Cuban women’s team
dominated both the World championships and the Olympics.

the ball in play. The
action is done with
arm swing that sends
the ball over the net
into the opponent’s
court.
 Basic Skills in Volleyball
B. Passing
• Passing is used to
receive the ball from your
opponents, as in service,
or as a technique to
accurately control the
ball in a way that
eliminates lifting or
carrying the ball.
 Basic Skills in Volleyball
C. Setting
•It is use to receive a teammate’s
pass in order that the play may
continue by passing the ball
overhead to an attacker. The
action of setting is to contact the

 Basic Skills in Volleyball
D. Attacking/Spiking
• It is used to put the ball
into the opponent’s court
in order to earn point or
side out. The action of this
skill will incorporates a
quick approach followed
by a strong, full arm swing,

 Basic Skills in Volleyball
E. Blocking
• It is used to stop the ball of the
opponent’s attack to cross the net. A
block is effective if it immediately places
the ball back into the opponent’s court
or if it temporarily slows down the ball in
order for a defender to make dig. The

the net with feet shoulder width apart,
arms nearly extended above the head,
ready to jump above the net to deflect
the ball back into the opponent’s court.
 Basic Skills in Volleyball
F. Digging
• It is used to receive the
opponent’s attack. The dig
resembles a forearm pass
from a low ready position
and is used more for balls
that are hit near the
defender.
 MECHANICS
• Volleyball is a team sport in which each team aims to keep the ball
up on its side of the net while attempting to put the ball down on the
opposing team’s side of the net.
• A team scores when the ball touches the ground on the opponent’s
side of the net or the opponent is unable to return the ball to the
other side within three contacts.
• Volleyball teams have between two and six players; indoor volleyball
is played with six players, and beach volleyball is typically played
with two.
• Traditional indoor volleyball game player positions are the setter,
middle blocker, outside hitter, opposite and libero.
 MECHANICS
• Each player in a traditional indoor volleyball game starts in a specific
location: the left front, middle front, right front, left back, middle back or
right back. Each time a team wins possession of the serve, the team
moves over one spot clockwise.
• When the ball is served to the other side of the net, the opposing team is
allowed to make contact with the ball no more than three times.
• These contacts are ideally a pass, set and hit. The first team to reach the
score agreed upon wins the game, but the win must be by at least two
points.
• Every time a team wins the serve from the other team, the players rotate
their position on court clockwise so that everyone gets a chance to serve.
 SCORING SYSTEM
• Games are played until a team hits 25 points and at
least has a two point lead to win the set. Most
games has five sets, so to win a team must have
won three out of five sets. The last set goes up to
15 points and a team must have a two point lead to
win the set. With sideout scoring, all sets are
played up to 15 points and the team must at least
have a two point lead.

EQUIPMENTS
 EQUIPMENTS

Lines
• The playing court is marked by two sidelines and two
end lines. All lines must be 2 inches wide and must be
created with a light color that is easy to discern from
the playing court. An attack line should be placed
three meters from the center line. The center line

cables and posts. Posts are placed 0.5 to 1.0 meter
outside the sidelines and 2.55 meters high. Posts should
be round, smooth and padded, to prevent injury to the

Knee pads
• Knee pads should be sturdy enough to protect your
knees from falls, slides and dives, but flexible
enough to allow you to bend comfortably. Your
volleyball knee pads must be made of fabric that
breathes and manages moisture. Good quality
pads have a gel or foam shock-absorbing material
that will cover and protect your patella.
EQUIPMENTS
 EQUIPMENTS

Shoes
• Arch and ankle support is key when choosing a
volleyball shoe. Mizuno, Asics and Nike are just a few
of the popular brands of volleyball shoes, which are
lightweight, allowing you to be faster on your feet, as
well as bearing good shock absorption on your toes.
Volleyball shoes also provide for better lateral
movement than typical running or cross-training
shoes.
EQUIPMENTS

Clothing and Jewelry

• All clothing should be lightweight to allow maximum
flexibility and breath-ability, as well as made of a material
that absorbs sweat and keeps skin dry. Spandex shorts
are a good option, as they are flexible, light and absorb
odor. Socks, while not required, absorb sweat and
prevent blisters. Jewelry is not permitted in volleyball, with
the exception of smooth wedding bands. Glasses must be
worn with a strap to keep them secure.
