| Summary: | The aim of this investigation was to identify, explain, understand and analyze the constituent elements of the atmosphere in a volleyball team. First the elements were identified and then the most relevant were determined in order to better understand the atmosphere phenomenon and how it influences a volleyball team. A case study was carried out with a high level male volleyball team during the National League Championship. It was characterized as a descriptive study by the use of ethnographic methodology and data collecting, participating observation, interviews and filming were the principal instruments. The data were analyzed through pre-established dimensions: identification, autonomy, performance, reward and growth. The analysis determined fourteen constituent elements that identify the group of characteristics of a type of atmosphere in a volleyball team. The identification of these elements provides a general view of the team’s mood and makes it possible to adjust the individual and group necessities to make the team more efficient. |
