Open the match entry on Volleymetrics and click Upload on the right-hand side. You’ll be prompted to select the video or scoresheet file from your computer.
- Video
- We recommend recording from behind the service line with both antennae visible. After the match, separate video files should be merged and be smaller than 3GB. Here’s more information on merging and compressing video.
- Scoresheet
- An image of the official scoresheet, with all sets included, needs to be uploaded for a match to be analyzed. If you’re unable to locate the scoresheet for a match you want analyzed, Match Details (P2), Match Reports or DVW files are also accepted.
Review & Comment
In less than 24 hours after submission, you’ll see a green checkmark next to your video. This indicates you can now watch, filter and comment.
Comments are private to your own team. Tag any of your players or coaches by first name (@allison), or even a group of people (@liberos, @coaches). Those tagged will receive a notification and are able to jump straight to that point in the video, then respond to your comment.
As you review video, please keep in mind rotations are labeled using the American naming convention.

Install and Test Your Volleymetrics Camera
This device must be installed and functioning before you add your schedule. If you need to change the view, or if the camera does not pass the portal test, these troubleshooting options can help.
Pro tip: It’s always a good idea to record your match with a backup camera in case of any issues.
Add Events
Use these steps to add or edit matches and practices to the Volleymetrics portal. We recommend you include:
- Your home matches
- Neutral matches at your venue
- Any away matches at schools that don’t use Volleymetrics
Your conference will have exchange rules that dictate what you are responsible for adding. Please double-check those guidelines to avoid any penalties.
