Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of imagery training on the passing and serving skills of university volleyball players in Punjab, Pakistan. The participants were aged between 18-25 years and had at least five years of volleyball playing experience. An imagery training program was based on the 40 players of 10 public and private universities of Punjab. An imagery ability training questionnaire was filed, before and after the imagery training program by using the judgmental sampling technique. Descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test were implemented to analyse the data at P<0.05 level of significance. The results of the study show that imagery training improved the passing and serving skills of volleyball players at the university level. It is suggested that government and policymakers should take initiatives to promulgate the mental training programs to improve the scope and performance of university-level volleyball players so that they can perform well at national and international level.
