This study aimed to establish anthropometric characteristics of volleyball players who participated in the 2023 Men's African Volleyball Club Championship and to identify the possible differences in these parameters in terms of individual playing positions. Player's age, height, and body mass (bm) were obtained from the African Volleyball Confederation Tournament’s Control Committee. A total of 197 players from 15 teams were included and organized in four groups according to their ranks (G1–G4) and sub-grouped using their playing positions. Significant differences (P<0.05) in age, height and body mass index (bmi) were observed among the studied groups (G1–G4). Players in G4 were the tallest and presented the greatest bm (P<0.05) while those in G3 were the youngest. The lowest bm value was observed in G2 (P<0.05). As far as attributes for the different playing positions are concerned, the Middle Blockers and the Opposite players were the tallest (P<0.05). In addition, the opposite players had the greatest (P<0.05) bm while the liberos possessed the greatest bmi values. This study presented anthropometric profile that differentiated levels of success among the teams. This information should serve as reference for staturo-ponderal’s average characteristics of volleyball players according to their positions at professional level.
