The collected data were statistically analysed by using descriptive analysis, paired sample‘t’ test, univariate tests, the pair wise comparisons. There was a significant improvement on passing and serving of Volleyball players due to the effect of multimedia computer assisted instruction programme, traditional instruction programme and combined instruction programme.
