On February 9, 1895, in the city of Holyoke, in the gym of the Young Christians Association, physical education teacher William Morgan came up with a team ball game in which elements of basketball, baseball and handball are mixed, and the net is borrowed from tennis. In the gym, Morgan hung a tennis net at a height of 197 cm and his students began to throw a ball over it.
Congratulations to all fans and professionals on the birthday of our favorite sport!
Happy birthday, volleyball!
