What was the first volleyball game ever played?
The game was invented in 1895 at the Holyoke, Massachusetts YMCA. The first actual game was probably played in the first few days while William Morgan and others figured out the rules of the initial game. There is documentation of an official team representing the Holyoke YMCA but no documentation of games played or a win-loss record. it is believed that at that time, YMCAs would play against each other in both basketball and volleyball. Within 5 years the YMCA expanded internationally to spread Christianity, because of this volleyball did too. So who knows, I’m sure that many games were played in those 5 years to solidify the sport enough to extend beyond this nations borders.
