This study aims to highlight the importance of selection by morphological and physical criteria to determinate the profile of volleyball players from 9-12 years of age to a field study of some state 'club of Algeria, and to propose a model that includes the morphological and physical characteristics, as well, as we have compared this model with a standard model.

The research relied on a sample consisting 120 players, 70 males and 50 females aged 9-12 who practice Volleyball in states: Laghouat, Djelfa, El-Bayadh.

We applied the tests in a repeated way for six weeks pre-test and after test in order to get accurate results for both the length test, weight, arm length, length of humerus and palm, as well as physical tests: speed, vertical uplift, strength, flexibility, the statistical analysis also the difference in morphological and physical data of the Volleyball players, is 9-12 years old between a select team from the three previously mentioned states and the model of the national team, a significant difference for the national team's.
