In elite volleyball, previous studies revealed some patterns in male technical actions. The opposite is the most scorer player, middle blockers are the most efficient players in the block action, while outside hitters -- to winning points in a high level -- require perfect receptions, fast attack tempo and powerfully executed attacks. The purpose of this study was to compare different technical actions between the top 4 Portuguese volleyball teams and top 4 Golden European League. The study included the top 4 teams participating in the European Volleyball Golden League in 2018 and the top 4 teams participating in the Portuguese Volleyball League. We analyzed 8 outside hitters, 8 middle blockers and 4 opposite players from each league (total of 40 players). This study analyzed a total of 430 technical actions (attack efficacy of the opposite - 109 actions -, block efficiency of the middle blockers -- 155 actions -- and receptions efficacy of the outside hitters -- 166 actions).
