The Contribution of Certain Body Heights to the Fast Attack Performance of Premier League Volleyball Players

Abstract

The research aims to:

- Identify certain body heights of Premier League volleyball players.

- Determine the contribution of certain body heights to the fast attack performance of league players.

- Identify the effect of height on the fast attack performance of Premier League volleyball players. The researcher used the descriptive survey method as it was suitable for the nature of the research. The research population was defined as 140 players in the Premier Volleyball League, and the research sample consisted of 20 players from 10 clubs. The pilot study sample comprised two players from the North Refineries Club, while the main study sample consisted of 20 players, selected using a census method.

The researcher reached the following conclusions:

- The results showed that leg length was the only variable with a statistically significant effect on performance, indicating its key role in explaining differences in athletic performance.

- The other lengths (total height, lower limb length, and thigh length) did not show statistical significance and therefore cannot be considered direct factors affecting performance.
