A Comparative Study Using an Analytical Program for the Effectiveness of the Performance of the Sending and Receiving Skills of Female Premier League Volleyball Players

Abstract

The two researchers decided to conduct a comparative study of the level of effectiveness of performance for the skills of serving and receiving the serve for players of clubs participating in the Iraqi Premier League in women’s volleyball, using an analytical program for the purpose of revealing strengths and weaknesses, and through the two researchers’ follow-up of the matches of the Iraqi Premier League in volleyball for the advanced category, and also the fact that one of the two researchers was a player in one of the clubs of the Iraqi Premier League in volleyball found that there is a weakness in the level of effectiveness of performance for some technical skills, namely the skills of serving and receiving the serve, as there is a disparity between one club and another, as well as between one player and another. The researchers used the descriptive approach in the style of comparative and analytical study for its suitability to the research problem, while the two researchers identified the research community. The number of teams participating in the Iraqi Premier League in volleyball for the sports season 2021-2022 is 10 clubs, while the research sample was chosen from the teams that qualified for the semi-finals in the Iraqi Premier League in women’s volleyball for the sports season 2021-2022, where the number of clubs qualified was (4), namely ( Akkad Ainkawa, Aphrodite, Sennacherib, Qaraqosh) and thus the percentage of the research sample reached 40%, as the matches were analyzed using the most famous statistical program in the world (Datavolley). The two researchers concluded that significant differences appeared in the level of effectiveness of the skill performance of the serving skill in favor of the clubs (Aphrodite, Qaraqosh, Akkad). Ainkawa) and the absence of significant differences in the level of effectiveness of the performance of the serving skill for the Sennacherib Club, and the emergence of significant differences in the level of effectiveness of the skill performance of the skill of receiving the serve for the benefit of the clubs (Qaraqosh, Aphrodite, and Sennacherib) and the absence of significant differences in the level of effectiveness of the performance of receiving the serve for the Akad Ainkawa Club. The two researchers recommended the necessity of adopting the principle of objective evaluation in each of the various stages of training and in the competition stage by selecting standardized tests and analytical programs for offensive skills to monitor the effectiveness of skill performance, address their fluctuations at appropriate times, and emphasize the development of tactical capabilities due to their close connection with physical and skill capabilities, and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education)
