The longest volleyball game on record is one that was played in Kingston, North Carolina. The game went on for 75 hours and 30 minutes. The average volleyball players jumps about 300 times during a match. This is easy to do when you add in the jumping for blocking and spiking. During a higher level volleyball game, the ball can potentially reach up to 87 MPH. Volleyball is the second most popular sport, second only to soccer.
