and I wanted to make more. Looking back, I learned so much over the summer of 2013. The gold, plastic trophy first place shines over my desk and memories flood back into my head. I was so happy my cousin made me join beach volleyball. I was never the outgoing type or the person who tried to make new friends and talk with strangers. For some it was only a sport, but for me it was watching me grow as a person, experience new things, coming out of my shell and showing that fun crazy side of me.…
William G. Morgan created the game of volleyball, originally called “mintonette”, in 1859. Four years earlier, one of his friends invented the game of basketball.
