Background: Team-building exercises play a crucial role in enhancing both the physical and psychological aspects of sports performance. In youth volleyball, fostering teamwork and coordination through structured exercises may lead to improvements in physical abilities such as agility, strength, endurance, and reaction time.
Objective: This study aims to examine the impact of team-building exercises on selected physical performance variables among youth volleyball players.
Methodology: A group of youth volleyball players (Aged 12–17 years) participated in a structured training program incorporating team-building exercises alongside their regular skill and conditioning drills. Physical performance variables, including agility, reaction time, speed, muscular endurance, and coordination, were measured before and after the intervention. A control group followed a traditional training regimen without additional team-building exercises. Data were analyzed using statistical methods to determine the significance of improvements.
Results: The experimental group exhibited significant improvements in agility, reaction time, and coordination compared to the control group. Enhanced communication and trust among players contributed to better on-court movement and strategic execution.
Conclusion: Team-building exercises positively influence physical performance in youth volleyball by fostering better coordination, communication, and group synergy. Integrating such exercises into training programs can enhance overall performance and team effectiveness.
