BIOKINEMATIC ANALYSIS OF THE FALLING RECEPTION TECHNIQUE (“PADENIE”) IN HIGHLY SKILLED VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS
Keywords:
volleyball; padenie; falling reception; forward fall; side fall; backward fall; biokinematics; 3D motion analysisAbstract
The falling reception technique (“padenie”) is considered one of the most complex defensive skills in volleyball. This technique enables players to successfully receive low or fast-moving balls while simultaneously reducing the risk of injury. The padenie technique can be performed in various forms, each characterized by specific biokinematic features.References
