Abstract
In the modern sports world, attention to the psychological aspects of team activity is increasing. In this context, volleyball is of particular interest as a dynamic and technically complex game that requires a high degree of coordination and teamwork. Despite extensive research into the psychology of sports in general, the psychological characteristics of amateur volleyball players still remain poorly understood. This article represents a theoretical analysis of modern research aimed at identifying and understanding the psychological aspects affecting the team dynamics of amateur volleyball players. The purpose of the study is to study psychological aspects in team volleyball among novice players and identify possible gender differences. The objectives of the study include a theoretical analysis of sports psychology, a study of the psychological characteristics of young volleyball players, as well as determining the similarities and differences between the psychological characteristics of boys and girls in volleyball.
