Origin of the Beach Volleyball
It took over 60 years for the beach volleyball game to emerge from obscurity to the international spotlight. The first two-man beach volleyball in California in 1930 attracted little public interest. The game was granted Olympic medal status in 1993 and had its first official overall participation in the 1996 Summer Olympics. Without the support of international sponsors beginning in the 1970s, the game wouldn’t have achieved such worldwide recognition.
