The purpose of the present study was to clarify the relationships between body height and various performances in volleyball players. Eleven professional volleyball players were participated in this study. We classified participants into high group (HG） and low group (LG） based on their body height according to criteria of 197.8cm. We measured body height, standing reach height and body mass as body composition. Also, jump height and reach height of spike jump (SPJ） and brock jump (BJ） were measured as well as various jump height as jump performance. Furthermore, pro-agility test and medicine ball (MB, 3kg） throw were performed. The results as follows: 1） In SPJ and BJ, reach height was significantly higher in HG than LG. On the other hand, jump height of SPJ and BJ were significantly lower in HG than LG. Also, HG was higher than LG in CMJ height. 2） In pro-agility Test and MB, there was no significant difference between groups. We concluded that body height would be a disadvantage for jump height, although body height is crucial factor for reach height of various jump.
