This study aimed to analyze the flow of play in high-level female volleyball by sequencing game complexes, using social network analysis with eigenvector centrality. The sample analyzed 135 games from the Brazilian Women's Superleague 2021/2022 out of the 148 games. The results showed that the highest eigenvector values refer to game continuity in complexes II, III, IV, and V. Moreover, regardless of the effect of the attack, the eigenvector values are higher in complexes III, IV, and V. From the results found, social network analysis provided an understanding of the flow of game complexes in elite Brazilian women's volleyball, showing that game complexes that are less addressed in the literature due to their low occurrence should be considered necessary in high-performance training.
