In the realm of sports, volleyball is considered one of the hardest to keep statistics for. Why is this? Well, it’s simple – the game is so fast, it’s hard to keep up. While it’s certainly true that volleyball is one of the most upbeat and fast-paced sports in the world, that doesn’t mean keeping statistics should be hard. When keeping volleyball s...

Key point: intent – if the player is not trying to score a point, THEN
Three outcomes of an attack: Kill Attack error Ball stays in play (a.k.a. “zero attack”)
* Answer: an attack that directly leads to a point
A team/player has more kills than attacks A team/player has more errors than attacks
Key point: it does not Three outcomes: HAVE to be a set or be on the second contact Assist Assist error/ball handing error Zero assist (does not lead to a kill)
Answer: when a player passes, sets or digs ball to a teammate who gets a kill
Answer: an assist attempt that does NOT result on a kill
Don’t forget your back row! ANY contact that leads to a kill is an assist – it doesn’t have to be a traditional “set” Sets that go over the net If it falls for a point, it’s a KILL (and an attack) If it goes out of bounds, it’s an attack error
You have more assists than kills You have exactly the same assists as kills (VERY unlikely) You have more assists than total attacks
Three outcomes Service ace Service error Zero serve (ball is kept in play)
Answer: a serve that meets ANY the following conditions: Hits the court untouched Contact is made, but ball isn’t kept in play Violation is called on receiving team Receiving team is out of rotation
Answer: a serve that meets ANY of the following conditions Ball doesn’t go over the net Ball goes out of bounds (or hits antenna) Server foot faults Serving team out of rotation (service error goes to player who SHOULD have served)
To award a service ace or not – that is the ultimate question Remember: if the opposing team never got decent control of the serve, then don’t be stingy – it’s an ace!
* Your total for service aces and reception errors is different (we’ll get to reception errors in one minute!)
Key point: for every serve, there must be a reception attempt Two outcomes: Reception attempt Reception attempt AND reception error
Answer: whichever player receives the serve (first contact) is credited with a reception attempt
Answer: when a serve results for a point for the opposing team a player of team must be charged with a reception error Two kinds: *Player reception error Serve hits floor in area of a player Player receives serve, but makes bad pass Player called for a reception violation (rare) *Team reception error Serve falls between two players Receiving team i...
* Your total number of service aces and reception errors aren’t the same
Key point: you CANNOT get a dig from anything other than an attack Key point (part 2): YOU CANNOT GET A DIG FROM ANYTHING OTHER THAN AN ATTACK!!! Two outcomes Successful dig Ball handling error These are rare because first contact rules are much looser than second and third contact
YOU CANNOT GET A DIG FROM ANYTHING OTHER THAN AN ATTACK!!! Covered balls are NOT digs Freeballs CANNOT result in digs There can only be ONE dig per possession Watch out for ball handling errors (you will hardly EVER have them on dig attempts) If it happens on a serve, it’s a reception error If it happens on a block, it’s a blocking error If it happ...
YOU’RE GIVING DIGS ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN ATTACKS!!! A team’s total digs is greater than the opponent’s total attacks A team’s total digs is greater than the opponent’s zero attacks (TA – K – E)
Answer: when ONE player’s block immediately leads to a point
Answer: when a player’s attempt to block a ball directly results in the stoppage of play and a point for the other team (if there is a block error, there MUST be a kill for the other team) Examples: Blocker in the net Blocker across center line Blocker reaches over the net Back-row player attempts to block (mostly setter) Blocker called for thrown ...
* A team’s total blocks is greater than the opposing team’s attack errors (and, if they’re exactly the same, you probably messed up too)
NO!!! Remember the two golden rules: RELAX Take a deep breath and figure out what you just saw It’s all downhill from there...
