Summary:
The biomechanics of how a volleyball is served show that an overhand serve is more effective than an underhand serve.
As stated by Amezdroz et al, (2004) "Biomechanics is the study of how living things move, and the efficiency of movement, in particular. Biomechanics is used to" Provide valid reasons for observed effects, diagnose problems with technique and justify changes in technique." Applying the biomechanical principles found in 'Queensland Senior Physical Education' allows the athlete or trainer to analyse the success of the skill, this is shown in task two, in conjunction with the over and under arm serve. This then provides factors, which would effect personal skill acquisition, and allows the evaluator to determine the best possible serve.
TASK ONE
Describe the nature of the volleyball serving skill and determine the objective of the serve.
The main objective of the volleyball serve is to effectively serve the volleyball with maximum force, speed and power, making it difficult for.....
