Volleyball came to Canada five years after the game was created in 1895 by the YMCA in Massachusetts. However, it was not until 1953 that a national volleyball association, today called Volleyball Canada, was founded. That same year the Canadian association joined the "Fédération Internationale de Volley-Ball" (FIVB). The Switzerland-based FIVB approves Official Rules of the Game. With some minor variations for beach volleyball, Canadians play the game according to the same rules as the rest of the world.
