  • Play 2 balls in quick succession and then move 1 position.

Explanation of the exercise:
  • Passer learns to pass diagonally backwards a deep ball and immediately afterwards a short ball (this is how the passer learns to make large angles).
  • Playmaker must look for the next ball immediately after the first set-up.
  • Attacker, after landing, must go backwards as quickly as possible to make another attack.
  • Trainer can indicate where the balls should be hit, determine the pace of set-ups or that passer should do attack coverage immediately after first pass to then pass the second ball.
drawing Long Short
Per 6 on each side

  • level 1
    • 1 passer in 3 yards -> has been freeball so passer runs in
    • 2 players in defense play the ball to the passer in the 3m.
    • Passer passes, attackers leave at the net make backward move to attack home, do attack and catch the ball jumped at the net.
  • Level 2
    • Same as previous only attacker will play short tip ball back to defenders.
drawing Attack position 4 and 2
  • No training backward pass, so finish this way only when certain.
  • Ball thrown in from 2 to 6.
  • Reception to 3.
  • Ball is passed to 2 or 4, call for behind!
  • Other side turns the wrong way and we make the point!
  • Pass through every time!
drawing False pass and attack
  • 2 pass to the same side and attack.
  • Focus on the pass.
  • When the pass is given, leave with your run-up.
  • Exercise can also be adapted with explanation false pass:
    • always run up but the pass goes backwards to the other player. Opponents rotate their position and stand completely wrong as a result.
drawing Set-up: attack
  • On one side are a playmaker and a passer on the front left or right.
  • On the other side of the net stands someone who hits, this person calmly hits the ball toward the passer.
  • The passer passes to the playmaker.
  • The playmaker gives a set up on the passer who has passed.
  • The attacker/passer retrieves his own ball and becomes a thrower.
  • The thrower becomes passer.
