Abstract
This research was conducted to find out which position is the most effective in order to score points faster. A descriptive quantitative research was conducted with survey and observation methods at volleyball matches participated by 24 elite Indonesian athletes at the 2019 ASEAN School Games. Observation and survey were made at UIN Walisongo Semarang Sport Complex on 19-23 July 2019 by observing aspects of attacking positions and the effectiveness of the at-tack. Data were analyzed using descriptive method to find out which spike posi-tion was the most effective. Data showed that the middle position is the most ef-fective position to spike, both for the men's team (78.3%) and women's team (67.31%). Based on the result, middle position is able to make the attacking team Setter direct the ball using the quick technique. The middle position also can make Setter bounce the ball higher and unreachable by the blocker defense team.
