ABSTRACT: The aim of this study deals with praxis communication mechanisms that are at the heart of motor playfulness interactions formed in the practice of volleyball. This research perspective offers the opportunity to better grasp and understand the motor behavior of players that are shaping a social motor skills network revolving around cooperative and adversarial. From there, it seemed interesting to study the content of practicing volleyball at both high-level and at school. The joint communication network of sport is built on the frame of observable motor behavior of practitioners. Results revealed that within high-level sports, motor interactions of players are based on praxis communication networks being richer within school and club volleyball, thus highlighting links of opposition and cooperation around diverse and under-privileged social motor skills roles. In this context, we are questioning whether the technocratic and traditional approach of Volleyball is preferred over the approach of motor semiotic based on the study of motor behavior of practitioners and the praxis communication.
