“…RT2 * RZ5 also outperformed RT3 * RZ4, which would require the OHF to get closer to the net, limiting its spike run. López et al (2022), found a superior performance in reception after receiving in RT3 * ZR4 as compared to other rotations and back lines, while in this study we have found the opposite trend with a lower performance in the spike after receiving in this area. The use of short serves for strategic purposes trying to hinder the attack systems and reducing the performance of the teams in K1, has been raised by other authors in high-level men's volleyball (Lima et al, 2008;Maia & Mesquita, 2006).…”

“…This trend of decreased performance in spike after receiving the OHF was not observed in the previous situations, while it did occur in RT6 * RZ5. It is possible that in RT6 the highest percentage of serves made on the right side of the court (López et al, 2022), causes an imbalance of the reception structure towards that zone, generating a greater spatial responsibility in reception to the OHF both in RZ5 and in RZ61, which may hinder its transition to the spike. Similarly, lower performance was recorded in RT1 * RZ61.…”

“…Other studies have tried to relate the reception zones with the technical action of reception, or different K1 variables (Callejón & Hernández, 2009;Rentero et al, 2015). That has been attempted by reporting on the frequencies in the reception zones, associating the reception zones with the roles of the receiving players (Lima et al, 2008;Maia & Mesquita, 2006), with the reception technique (Paulo et al, 2016), the setting zone (Afonso et al, 2012;João et al, 2006), the sending zone for the setting (González- , the role of the attacking player (Marcelino et al, 2014), the attack time (Afonso et al, 2010;Rocha et al, 2021), with other elements of the game through a map of interactions with centroids (Hurst et al, 2016;Laporta et al, 2018) or social network análisis (Rocha et al, 2021), the reception performance (Afonso et al, 2017;Carrero et al, 2017;João & Pires, 2015;Maia & Mesquita, 2006;Paulo et al, 2016), the reception performance contextualized with the rotation of the receiving team (López et al, 2022) and the effect of attack (Rocha et al, 2021).…”

“…(Afonso et al, 2010;Hurst et al, 2016;Rocha et al, 2021). That is so despite having found trends in the delivery of the serve to reception zones that seem to indicate a strategic goal that is not directly related to reception performance, but rather with making it difficult for the receivers to join the spike and creating attack combinations (Grgantov et al, 2018;João & Pires, 2015;Kitsiou et al, 2020;López et al, 2022;Maia & Mesquita, 2006;Marcelino et al, 2014;Paulo et al, 2016;Sotiropoulos et al, 2021), facilitating the defense and blocking of the serving team (García-Tormo et al, 2006;Ureña et al, 2000). Based on this, sending the serve to a certain reception zone could have two possible goals: the direct goal of scoring or reducing reception performance, or hindering the development of an attack structure by reducing the performance in the spike.…”

“…The rotation of the receiving team refers to the position of the setter before putting the ball into play at the beginning of each point, according to the six official game positions (Silva, Sattler, et al, 2016), established in section 7.4 of the Official Volleyball Rules (FIVB, 2016). The use of a game system with a single setter by high-level teams leads to the development of six rotations as six different contexts at the beginning of the K1 sequence (López et al, 2022). There are studies that relate the rotation of the receiving team to the effectiveness of the K1 attack.…”

El objetivo de este estudio, fue investigar la asociación de la zona de recepción con el rendimiento del remate considerando el impacto de la rotación, en equipos de voleibol masculino de alto nivel. Fueron analizados 29 partidos de selecciones internacionales masculinas de máximo nivel, obteniendo una muestra de 3689 remates en la fase de KI. Las variables analizadas fueron: la rotación del equipo en recepción, la zona de recepción y el rendimiento del remate. Se emplearon modelos de regresión ordinales para determinar la influencia de la zona de recepción y la interacción de la rotación en el rendimiento del remate. Los resultados mostraron interacciones significativas entre la rotación y la zona de recepción, que permiten entender la mayor o menor probabilidad de conseguir un mejor rendimiento en remate (p<0.001) en algunas de las rotaciones. En conclusión, el rendimiento del remate es diferente en función de la interacción de la rotación del equipo y de la zona de recepción, lo que podría asociarse con decisiones tácticas en la ejecución del saque. Palabras clave: Rendimiento deportivo, complejo 1, rotación, ataque, zona de recepción, saque Abstract. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between the reception zone and the spiking performance in each of the game rotations in top level men's volleyball teams. The sample consisted of 29 men´s matches of final phases in Olympic Games, World League and World Cup between 2012 and 2016, obtaining a sample of 3,689 spikes in the K1 phase. The variables analyzed were: the rotation of the reception team, the reception area and the spike performance. Ordinal regression models were used to determine the influence of the receiving zone and the interaction of rotation on spike performance. The results show significant interaction between the rotation and the reception area on spike performance (X²₄₆ = 127.885; p <.001; r2 = .036), which allow us to understand the greater or lesser probability of achieving a better spike performance in some of the rotations. In conclusion, the performance of the spike varies depending on the interaction of the rotation of the team and the reception area, but this relation in global level, only explain 3.6% of the variance of the spike. The analysis of the situations in which significance has been found could be associated with strategic decisions in the execution of the serve and the training of the K1.

Background and Study Aim. In modern sports analysis statistical modeling of gameplay actions based on match data is becoming a key tool for optimizing training processes and tactical preparation. The aim of the research is to create models of volleyball players' actions based on statistical reports of the 2022 World Championship matches. Materials and methods. The study used statistical data on the World Volleyball Championship matches among men. The data was extracted from open internet sources and converted into tables in CSV format. These tables were processed in the PyCharm programming environment using Python code. The pandas library was used for data analysis and statistical operations, and 'scikit-learn' for machine learning. Results. Models are presented that best predict the results for teams and volleyball players. Important features for teams have been identified, indicating the successful execution of game elements for the team. The regression equations for the team represent a linear combination of various gameplay metrics that affect the total number of points the team scores in a match. They also emphasize the importance of action elements. Linear regression equations predict the total number of points a volleyball player scores based on various statistical indicators. Conclusions. It is recommended to use statistical modeling to optimize training and tactical strategies based on key gameplay metrics. Linear regression equations can assist in evaluating the effectiveness of a player and team. Regular data updates will ensure the relevance of models for better match preparation. Consideration should be given to the possibilities of implementing analytical tools based on the developed models into training programs to optimize the team's preparation for future matches.

The aim of the present research is to increase the serve reception efficiency for the players in the C. S. Arcada Galaţi team, by means of the statistical software program called “Data Volley”. As the coaches of this team, we had the opportunity to use such a tool by means of which we collected the necessary data for the study. We studied all the 12 teams during 36 official plays selected from the initial part of the Masculine National Volleyball Championships where the analysis focused on the serve reception of 48 players, so that we could get a clear image of the play efficiency of this technical procedure at a national level. The research methods used in the present article were the study of bibliographical material, the statistical-mathematical method, the video analysis and the graphical representation. As a result of the statistical analysis and video analysis, we found that the efficiency at a national level is 56%, as compared to the 52 % efficiency in the Arcada Galaţi team. The ample analysis of each player at serve reception evinced the reception deficiencies, where we noticed a 30% efficiency for the perfect reception (#) as compared to 33% at national level, and 22% for a positive reception (+) as compared to 23 % at a national level. The final results showed that the use of such a software during the entire sports training led to a noticeable increase of the serve reception efficiency, i.e. 32% for the perfect reception (#) and 27% for positive reception (+) at a total efficiency of 59%, which means a 7% increase as compared to the original analysis.
