Volleyball stats to track

The four stats that actually matter for volleyball players are: ELO rating, win/loss record, matches played, and head-to-head against your most frequent opponents. Volley tracks all four automatically. Other stats (set differential, point differential, average match duration) are interesting but less actionable.

Why this matters for volleyball players

Most Volleyball players who track stats fall into two camps: the casual ones who want to know if they're getting better, and the competitive ones who want to know exactly how they stack up against rivals. The same numbers serve both groups, but the framing is different.

How Volley tracks this automatically

The way Volley handles this: tap to score during the match, the stats compute automatically once the match ends, and you can review them any time from your profile. Same flow for all 9 sports the app supports.

Tips for improving

The single biggest lever for improving any of these stats is who you play against. Stronger opponents teach you more per match (and push your rating up more per win). Same-level opponents give you the most reliable feedback on your current form.
