Abstract
Several studies have been conducted in the past on key psychomotor indicators for the execution of basic and advanced volleyball skills. It has been noticed that sleep quality differs individually and hence may be explored to assess its effect on key performance indicators such as psychomotor skills essential in sports such as volleyball. To conduct the study, 60 elite male volleyball players from national-level tournaments were selected. The selected elite male national volleyball players were between 18 and 27 years of age. To evaluate sleep quality in elite male volleyball players, the Sleep Quality Scale prepared by Yi et al. (2006) was used. The Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.557, calculated between sleep quality and hand-eye coordination in elite male volleyball players, is statistically significant (p<0.05). It indicates that when scores on sleep quality increase, errors committed in the hand-eye coordination test also increase; thereby, lesser sleep-related problems also yield better hand-eye coordination. It was concluded that good sleep quality is essential for volleyball players to have optimal hand-eye coordination.
