Final answer:
Volleyball, which was called Mintonette in 1895.
Step-by-step explanation:
In 1895, the sport that would later be known as volleyball was called Mintonette. It was invented by James Naismith, who sought to create a less injury-prone sport that could be played indoors. The first Mintonette game used a net and the objective was to throw a soccer ball back and forth over the net without the ball touching the floor, similar to the modern game of volleyball.
Thus, at the time of 1895, volleyball was not yet called 'volleyball' but had a different name - 'mintonette'.
