Volleyball

Volleyball, although created in the United States, has become popular across the globe and is now the second most popular sport in the world after soccer. A combination of basketball, baseball, tennis and handball created this wonderful sport. Volleyball is a great recreational activity and can be played anywhere by anyone. (All you need to play is a net, ball and some friends. You can play at the beach, in the gym or even in your own backyard.) If you’re more of a serious athlete, competitive leagues are also available.
