Volleyball is a team sport where two teams of six players are separated by a net, aiming to score points by grounding the ball on the opponent's court. It has been an Olympic sport since 1964. Beach volleyball debuted as a demonstration event in 1992 and became an official Olympic sport in 1996.

The game was created on February 9, 1895, by William G. Morgan, a YMCA physical education director in Holyoke, Massachusetts. Initially called Mintonette, it was designed as an indoor sport for any number of players, drawing elements from tennis and handball. It was intended to be less intense than basketball, which had been invented nearby four years earlier. After Alfred Halstead observed the volleying aspect of the game during its first exhibition in 1896, it was renamed volleyball.
