Volleyball Sports History

In early discovery, volleyball game sport is named Mintonette. Mintonette sport was first invented by a physical education instructor (Director of Phsycal Education) named William G. Morgan at the YMCA on February 9, 1895, in Holyoke, Massachusetts (USA).
William G. Morgan was born in Lockport, New York in 1870, and died in 1942. YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) is an organization dedicated to teaching the basic teachings of Christianity to the youth, as taught by Jesus. This organization was established on June 6, 1884 in London, England by William George.
After meeting with James Naismith (the creator of the sport of basketball was born on November 6, 1861, and died on 28 November 1939), Morgan created a new sport called Mintonette. Similarly, James Naismith, William G. Morgan also dedicates her life as a physical education instructor. William G. Morgan is also a graduate of Springfield College of the YMCA, created the game Mintonette four years after the creation of the sports game basketball by James Naismith. Sports Mintonette game is actually a game that was created by combining several types of games. Precisely, Mintonette game created by adopting four different characters into one game sports, namely basketball, baseball, tennis, and the last is handball (handball). At first, the game was created specifically for YMCA members who are not young anymore, so the game is not as active-even basketball games.
Mintonette name change to volleyball (volleyball) occurred in 1896, in his first game demonstration at the International YMCA Training School. In early 1896, Dr. Luther Halsey Gulick (Director of the Professional Training School Physical Education as well as the Executive Director of the Department of Physical Education of the International Committee of the YMCA) called and asked Morgan to demonstrate the new game he had created a new campus stadium. At a conference held at the campus YMCA, Springfield was also attended by the entire physical education instructor. On the occasion, Morgan took two teams in each five-person team.
On that occasion, Morgan also explained that the game is a game that can be played inside or outside the room with a very liberal. And she explained at the time, this game can also be played by many players. There is no limit to the number of players in a standard game. While the goal of the game is to keep the ball in order to keep moving higher over the net, from one area to another (region opponent).
