How to calculate volleyball hitting percentage
Hitting percentage in volleyball measures attacking efficiency by comparing kills minus errors to total attack attempts — a standard offensive performance statistic.
How the calculation works
Hitting percentage = (Kills − Errors) ÷ Total attack attempts.
Example
18 kills, 4 errors, 40 total attempts: (18−4)÷40 = 14÷40 = 0.35 (or .350).
