History

Volleyball arrived in Puerto Rico following the arrival of Americans to the island, through the Young Men’s Christian Association. It spread throughout the island thanks to American teachers. The sport gradually became part of Puerto Rican culture, eventually becoming one of the most popular.
The Federación Puertorriqueña de Voleibol established a professional men's volleyball league. In its first season, held in 1958, 10 teams participated: Santurce, Hato Rey, Army, Aguada, Ciales, Guayama, Ponce, Yauco, Naranjito, and Río Piedras. Naranjito was crowned champion after defeating Río Piedras in the finals.
