Volleyball was created in 1895 by William G . Morgan and has since become a worldwide sensation .
Volleyball was originally known as “ Mintonette ” because of its similarities to badminton .
The now well-known official ball for the sport was crafted in the year 1900 .
Volleyball was first introduced as an Olympic sport in 1964 .
JV Volleyball Coach
Chan was frequently found watching Ms . Forbes son ,
Joshua Forbes . These two became good buddies during the season .
Some of the most important skills I learned this season during volleyball had less to do with the sport and more to do with working with others . I learned how to communicate and work with a team . For these reasons my team felt more like my second family . I hope my team knows how much I love them !
