Volleyball drill: watching is important
Watching is important
- The purpose of the exercise is twofold:
- the defender must learn to "read" where the attacker is going to hit
- and the attacker has to see where the defence stands before hitting.
- We work with two regular playmakers, on both sides of the field a row of attackers on the left-for position.
- And two defenders, who may choose where they position themselves on the field.
- A defender has to defend the attack 10 times, preferably a nice pass, but touching is enough.
- If the attacker hits the net or leaves the field, that also counts.
- And the attackers may only smash, no prick balls!
- After the attack, the attacker retrieves the ball and joins the other line.
- When the defender has defended a ball 7 times, he changes with an attacker.
- If there are less players, the exercise can also be done, but then on one side.
- The attacker retrieves the ball and then joins the same line.
- The blocking player joins in and indicates where he is going to block and the mid-back goes to his place.
