Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decides to blend elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than basketball. He creates the game of Volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrows the net from tennis, and raises it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man's head. There are unconfirmed whispers of mens teams playing on the beach in Hawaii, but most accounts place the sport's origin in Santa Monica, California where the first Volleyball courts are put up on the beach at the Playground.

Extractions: Beach Volleyball Rules The following is based upon the California Beach Volleyball Association's (CBVA) rules of play for beach volleyball. They present only the areas where there are differences or misunderstandings with indoor rules. Other associations (AVP, WPVA, AVA,, USA Outdoor, etc.) may have a few modifications but generally their interpretations are similar. Special thanks to the officiating legend of all time, Steve Lawton. 1. You may go completely under the net into your opponent's court as long as there is no interference with the opponent. 2. The ball must cross the net anywhere between, but not over, the poles. Net antennas are not used. 3. With the exception of the serve, the ball can contact any part of the net and its supporting ropes and cables, but not the poles or eye hooks, during play. 4. The ball can be played back to one's side of the net if it has crossed past the imaginary extension of the net on the sides of the court or under the net as long as a team has one or more contacts left.
