Abstract

This study aimed to identify the relationships between the explosive force of the arms, the speed of the arm angle, the ball’s flight angle, and the accuracy of the spiking skill in volleyball players, as well as how each factor impacted the others. A descriptive approach using the survey method was employed. A total of thirty players from Imam Al-Muttaqin, Al-Hussainiya, and Al-Hur clubs participated in the study, selected through random sampling. The following tests were conducted: Medicine Ball Throw Test, Overpowering Hit Accuracy Skill Test, and the Kenova program to measure the velocity of the arm angle and the angle of the ball’s flight. Statistically significant correlations were found between explosive power and angular velocity (p<0.05), explosive power and the ball’s flight angle (p<0.05), as well as explosive power and spiking accuracy (p<0.05). The study suggests incorporating physical fitness components into training sessions led by coaches.
