Sport is a key element in disability, it is a context of great support that often welcomes and receives important changes in how every subject can read and understand his special condition. Sitting Volleyball is one of the most representative sports in the world of disability, able to stimulate athletes playing it both physically and psychologically by enhancing their potential and abilities. Therefore, given its characteristics, sport can contribute to enhancing and supporting psychological aspects that are fundamental to the life of the disabled, improving his development and enhancing what he feels he is able to achieve. The ability to provide the disabled with the utmost commitment to achieving any objective beyond their own difficulties arises from the ability to feel and recognize them as valid and effective people, placing an important amount of confidence in their resources at the basis of this process. Taking care of one's own physical and psychological well-being through sport allows reversing a life pattern from within, by creating new opportunities for growth through greater awareness, more intense quality of the relationships, and an important acquisition of new resources. Convincing and redefining positively, by experiencing and evaluating one's own limits as resources and qualities, supports the disabled and who revolves around his world, accepting difficulties and facing the issues under a different light
