William G. Morgan invented volleyball in Holyoke, Massachusetts, just four years after basketball was invented in the neighboring town of Springfield. Morgan, a physical education director, created "Mintonette" for older athletes who wanted to play indoor sports but deemed basketball too rough. The name volleyball came from the nature of the game: "volleying" a ball back and forth over a net. Players can also "spike" the ball and drive it downward into the opponents' court. What is a "pancake"? Discuss (http://forum.thefreedictionary.com/postst73573_William-G--Morgan-Invents-Volleyball.aspx)
