From a historical-social perspective of volleyball in the city of Curitiba / PR, this article aims to identify and analyze the processes that led to the structuring of sports institutions and associations parallel to the Paraná Volleyball Federation, and how these institutions influenced the development of the sport, including its competitions, at the regional level. Methodologically, we base the study on a qualitative research, of a descriptive nature and documentary analysis. As a time frame, we initially delimited the year 1932, the year in which we found the first record on the development of the sport in Paraná, until the year 2015. As a conclusion, we found that the emergence of new institutions that promote volleyball in the state of Paraná, together with partnerships between public and private powers, made it possible to improve new forms and strategies for organizing and managing volleyball, which, in turn, led to a qualification and development of the sport at the regional level.
