The purpose of the study was to analyze the spatio-temporal analysis of volleyball serve. Fifteen (15) Indian International male volleyball players were selected from different institutions, training centers and training camps with their mean age, height, weight and training experiences in time as 23.53±6.47 years, 1.96±0.05 meters, 86.07±7.94 kg., 7.73±4.99 years respectively. Two volleyball serves skill were video recorded by using two synchronized Legaria SF10 Cannon Camcorder. The shutter speed of the camcorder (camera) was set at 1/2000 and frame rate of 50 Hz. The kinematic parameters were selected as three different phases; Approach phase, Arm Cocking & Arm Acceleration phase, and Follow Through phase. The parameter of first phase was TSLA. Second phase parameters were as SEAC, EEAC, MHTC, ABAC, SEAN, EEAN, SSHN. Third phase parameter were as BVF and ARBF. All parameter of three different phases were analyzed on two different volleyball serve variations i.e. jump float serve and jump topspin serve. The video recordings were analyzed by using Silicon Coach Pro8 motion analysis software to obtain data. The result of the study revealed that only two variables: EEAN and MHTC showed significant different in second phase. In third phase, ARBF showed significant different. The statistical analysis was done with the help of t-test by using SPSS v.21. with level of significance fixed at 0.05.

Keywords- Kinematics spatio-temporal variables, Jump float and jump topspin serve, Motion analysis software.
