During the 1890s, basketball was becoming the most popular gym game in America. But basketball was not a good sport for older people to play because of much running in the game.
So in 1895, William Morgan, a gym teacher in Holyoke, Massachusetts, America, decided to invent a new game that would be good for older persons too. He invented a game which was played with the same kind of ball as basketball, but more like tennis.
At first Morgan called the game "minonette". But when he watched players hitting the ball back and forth(向前)with their hands, or "volleying(凌空截球),,,he changed the name and named it volleyball.
Volleyball and basketball, which were both invented in the nineteenth century, have both become popular games. Today, volleyball has more and more players and audience (观众)around the world.
