In this paper, we consider to evaluate the efficiency of volleyball players according to the performance of attack, block and serve, but considering the compositional structure of the data related to the fundaments. The finite mixture of regression models better fitted the data in comparison with the usual regression model. The maximum likelihood estimates are obtained via an EM algorithm. A simulation study revels that the estimates are closer to the real values, the estimators are asymptotically unbiased for the parameters. A real Brazilian volleyball dataset related to the efficiency of the players is considered for the analysis.
