one of the conference delegates, professor alfred t. halsted, loved the game of mintonette, but he felt like something was just not right. professor halsted suggested that the name of the game should be volleyball, since the main point of the game was to “volley” the ball to a player or over the net. morgan agreed with halsted's idea and since then the original game of “mintonette” has been referred to as volleyball.
