A volleyball player’s offensive efficiency is measured through a statistic derived from kills, errors, and attack attempts. The calculation involves subtracting attack errors from kills, dividing that result by total attack attempts, and then multiplying by 100 to express the value as a percentage. For example, a player with 10 kills, 2 errors, and 20 attempts would have a percentage of 40%.
This metric provides valuable insight into a player’s offensive contribution and is a key indicator of both individual and team performance. Coaches use this statistic to evaluate player effectiveness, make strategic decisions regarding player positioning and rotations, and track progress over time. A higher percentage generally correlates with greater offensive success, contributing significantly to a team’s winning potential. Its evolution has mirrored the sport’s increasing focus on data-driven analysis for enhanced performance.
