Die erste Weltmeisterschaft im Volleyball wurde 1949 bei den Männern in Prag durchgeführt. Seit 1952 finden regelmässig alle 4 Jahre Weltmeisterschaften statt, und zwar bei den Männern und bei den Frauen. 1962 wurde der Ryhthmus umgestellt, damit die Weltmeisterschaften nicht im gleichen Jahr wie die Olympischen Spiele ausgetragen werden müssen (wie im Fussball auch).
