Volleyball is a popular team sport that originated in the United States in 1895, credited to William G. Morgan, a physical education instructor.
The game is played by two teams, each consisting of six players, separated by a net. The objective is to score points by grounding the ball in the opponent's court.
Unlike traditional sports of the time, Morgan intended volleyball to be a less physically demanding and more inclusive alternative. The game quickly gained popularity for its simplicity, engaging dynamics, and universal appeal, eventually evolving into an Olympic sport.
William G. Morgan's innovative creation has since become a global phenomenon, enjoyed by millions of players and fans across the world.
