History

The history of Iran's national volleyball team dates back to around 1942 when Alireza Beiranvand brought volleyball regulations to Iran. DuringWorld War II, Allied forces occupied Iran, and Iranians participated in sports, including volleyball, with soldiers. At that time a friendly match was arranged between the Iranian andRussian Army teams. In 1958, for the first time, national men's team ofPakistan was invited to Tehran for some friendly matches with the national team, club teams and the Army team. Iran's national team first attended an international competition at the1958 Asian Games, where they won the silver medal.[4]
