r/volleyball

I'm developing a volleyball match analysis app (yes, I'm the developer — also a volleyball parent who started tracking my kid's games obsessively).

I'm working on adding CSV export, and I want to make sure the data is actually useful — not just a dump of numbers nobody needs.

So I'm curious: do any of you export stats and dig into them in Excel or Google Sheets? If so, what are the columns or metrics you actually find valuable? What's missing from most tools?

Brutal honesty appreciated.

Hi, I’m planning a trip to Vancouver and looking for opportunities to play volleyball on May 29 and between June 2 and June 6.

I have about 8 years of experience playing volleyball in Korea. Since most amateur games in Korea are 9-man format, I’m still getting used to 6-on-6 rotations, but my fundamental skills are solid.

I’m staying in the Marpole/Oakridge area, but I’m willing to travel to Downtown or other accessible areas for a good game.

I’d appreciate any info on:

1. Which websites or apps are most effective for booking drop-ins or finding pickup games?
2. Are there any local or Urban Rec teams looking for a sub during those dates?

I'm open to indoor, grass, or beach volleyball. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or an open spot on your team. Thanks.

As a young coach trying to modernize our assessment process, I'm looking for recommendations. We typically do CMJ, attack and block jump recordings monthly, also endurance testing and cod drills, but the manual recording is just too time consuming. What tools do you have to make it trackable on the long run?

Hi! I'm a 16F who's going into her junior year. I've been a Middle for my club for about 2 years now. As I'm getting older, I realized that I'm pretty short (5'7, not short in GENERAL but short for my position.) And I really struggled this year because all of the girls were pushing 5'10 or higher. I like to think I have a good vert, but my arms are too small and short lol.

Though I have plans on working on everything this summer before club try outs, I want a certain position to show special attention too. I've played setter for my school, but not for very long. Only half way through freshman year and the entire of my sophomore year.

So I'm curious! Thanks for any advice ahead of time.

Hi I just need some help deciding my position because in 2 months we have tryouts for a club im thinking of joining but I cant decide. I will share some of my skills to let you know my ability level.

Passing: pretty underaverage or average, I can get the ball up but not always right to the setter.

Serving: very good I do consistent topspin jumpserves in 14u.

spiking: Average or slightly above average, I can hit pretty well but often lack power and struggle with hitting the ball anything other then back corner.

setting: horrible not an option

blocking: average

Im a right handed 5'9 male who is 14. I've been playing middle as everyone on my current team is very short but im assuming that wont be an option for more competetive volleyball.

Hey guys, just a quick question about hitting as an outside hitter. I have some mental block on the balls that are close to the net, i am scared of them, i don't want to land in the net or under the net on the opposite side, especially when i am getting blocked. I am just fine with hitting balls that are a little further from the net. Soy question is what do i do with those balls? Do i just jump from normal position but extend my arm? Or do i have to come closer, i think my problem is that i don't understand in which position should my hand be when contacting the ball. The ones that are further, i contact at my max reach in height. Maybe i should try contacting them more in from of me? I would appreciate either explanations or youtube links, i wasn't able to find anything myself. Thanks in advance
