In volleyball, attack coverage is one of the play actions most neglected in coaching and research. The purpose of
this study was to find out which attack coverage systems are used by high-level men’s teams in different game
situations and the characteristics of the most effective systems. We analysed 15 matches from the 2010 Men’s PanAmerican Volleyball Cup, with a total of 1,415 coverage actions. Chi-square tests for independence, adjusted residuals
analysis and calculations of standardised mean difference were performed. The results show that high-level men’s
volleyball uses many coverage systems other than the traditional 3-2-0 and 2-3-0. At this level of play, the most
frequent systems were 1-3-1 and 1-2-2, which occurred significantly often at the culmination of a third-tempo attack at
the wing. The most effective systems consisted of three coverage lines, with fewer than five players covering the spiker
and at least one player in the first coverage line, in both the attack and counterattack phases. Given the large number of
coverage systems identified in different game situations, we recommend flexible, loosely structured training in these
systems, based on a set of guiding principles that all players on a team must internalise for the specific position they are
playing. Regarding the systems’ efficacy, the main watchword is that on each coverage line there should always be at
least one player, but the first line should not be exposed.
This study was conducted with support and funding from the National Institute of Physical Education of Catalonia (INEFC) and the Generalitat de Catalunya Research Group GRUP DE RECERCA I INNOVACIÓ EN DISSENYS (GRID). Tecnologia i aplicació multimedia i digital als dissenys observacionals [2014 SGR 971]. It also received support from two research projects of the Spanish government: (a) Avances metodológicos y tecnológicos en el estudio observacional del comportamiento deportivo [PSI2015-71947-REDT]; and (b) La actividad física y el deporte como potenciadores de estilo de vida saludable: evaluación del comportamiento deportivo desde metodologías no intrusivas [DEP2015-66069-P]. |
