Volleyball drills

  • first explain technique (heart shape, 10 fingers playing the ball)
  • pairs, only play overarm, begin with catching throwing.
  • slowly expand to short contact
  • distance not too long and concentration.
  • pay close attention to fingers in heart shape and playing with 10 fingers 
  • it is about the success experience,
  • Trainers: shows basis, right leg forward, make plank, step in, etc.
  • In pairs with 1 ball. Player at the net throws ball to player in the back which passes back. Is the pass correct, then play overarm, but be strict!! 20 balls, then change.
    (Score keeping every good ball is a point)
  • Idem, only now the balls are thrown short/long, so back player has to move forwards/backwards.
  • T1 places to playmaker 1
  • Set-up to 2
  • Attack left forward 
  • 1+2 block, then back for attack
  • T2 plays the ball to playmaker 3, coming in from the right back
  • set up to 2 on middle or to 1 on right forward 
VARIATION: Idem: to left forward

3-meter-attack-with-defense

in pairs, practice fanatically

After:

- 1, 2 and 3 start from end line
- sprint to middle line and back to the back field
-  C plays a ball in the back field
- 1, 2 and 3 build up an attack (pass, set-up and attack) 
- get the ball yourself.
- next trio

practice

attack-at-right-forward-middle-and-outside

-1 defender starts behind the end line
-  C plays high ball in the field
-  1 comes in and plays overarm to S
-  S sets up backwards to 4
-  Attack through the middle, attacker gets the ball
-  1 will be attacker, and 2 will be defender
VARIATION: with block, 

Then with middle attackers and then with outside attackers

Block defense with dive

blocking
- 1 first blocks middle and then left forward
 - turn around after block and defend attack by 3
- then defends (in dive) short ball by 5
- 2 is the next
Rotate: - 1 to short ball
 - 3 to blocking
 - 5 to attack


  • The attack comes from the right
  • Block the middle and the diagonal, the outside attacker comes to the middle, the upper comes forward 
  • The trainer hits the ball, we go to our positions, and defend the trainer's ball. 
  • We keep rotating a spot.
  • The remaining players defend for themselves and put the ball in the cart.

Explanation of the exercise:

  • The players make pairs. 
  • Each pair has 1 ball. 
  • 1 player of the pair plays the ball overarm over the net. 
  • The other one catches. Alternatingly.


XL Challenge:

  • Add a second ball. 
  • As soon as a player has played the ball overarm over the net, the other play throws the ball underhand over the net.
  • You can make it even more difficult by playing both the balls overarm.


Left and right to 1 side of the net a line of attackers, playmaker on fixed position (right forward), passer left back. Three blockers on the other side of the net (right forward, middle, and left forward).

Ball is thrown from the other side to   passer, passes to SV, sets up alternately to the attackers; mhidden blocker can only leave when set up has been played.

Points of attention:

  • position of the hands (turned to position 6); place arms over the net (lock ball)
  • jump after the attacker jumps
  • middle player properly connects; outside blocker puts up block from outside to inside (never the other way around)
