Even though volleyball had a humble start in the United States, it is astounding to see the success it has had worldwide.
During the early years, the sport's biggest fault to its popularity was the frequent rule changes. Coaches had a hard time teaching it because every few years the rules changed. A lot of changes were made with the ball size and the court size. The number of players per side was determined by the space on the court, and back then the players did not rotate either.
The rules and other volleyball information were first published in 1897. Teams consisted of 4 players, and four innings made up a game. Back then servers used a bat to serve the ball, and if the serve hit the net it was considered a fault and the server was out. So you can see the game really has changed and evolved over time.
This sport has grown and developed world wide. Even though its roots are in the United States, it is only now that it is getting the popularity it has around the globe.
