Abstract

    The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different method of service practice. The subjects were two university female volleyball teams.

    Different practice methods were applied to the two volleyball teams. One team carried out the practice using targets, the other without targets.

    Player's mental attitude when serving was measured by questionnaire before, during and after the training period.

    In addition, to examine the effect of training, some games were held between the two teams before and after training.

    The results of the study were as follows.

 1) The team which used targets could disperse service course right and left instead of concentrating the service course on the center as before, without changing the quality of service.

 2) As to mental attitude, player's concentration on service was enhanced. From these results, it was concluded that practice using targets on the court was effective in improving volleyball service.
