They were divided into two groups, (16) students for each group they were randomly selected . Class (B) represented the experimental group and was studied in accordance with gaining classification strategy in learning volleyball skills. Class (C) represented the control group and the traditional strategy was used in learning the volleyball skills. Equivalence was made between the two groups in some variables that affect learning in addition to equivalence among the skills. Learning program was constructed by the researcher consisting of six teachings units, using gaining classification strategy. After being reviewed by experts, the program was applied on the experimental group. After finishing the learning program for the two groups, a post test for the two groups was made. Data were statistically analyzed using the suitable statistical methods. The researcher concluded that the group studied in accordance with gaining classification strategy was better than that studied in accordance with traditional strategy in acquiring volleyball basic skills (Setting-Receiving-and Serving).The researcher recommended the use of gaining classification strategy in learning volleyball basic skills(Setting-Receiving-and Serving) as it is best than the traditional strategy.
