Question

When did volleyball started?

Answer 1

On February 9, 1895, in Holyoke, Massachusetts, William G. Morgan, a YMCA physical education director, created a new game called Mintonette as a pastime to be played preferably indoors and by any number of players.

After an observer noticed the volleying nature of the game at its first exhibition match in 1896 played at the Springfield YMCA, the game quickly became known as volleyball (originally spelled as two words). Volleyball rules were slightly modified by the Springfield YMCA and spread around the country to other YMCA locations.

Answer 2

It originated in America, back in 1895.
