Volleyball drills for technique block / net defense

  • Attacking three positions.
  • Other side of the net, three blockers.
  • Coach throws ball to libero.
  • After attack: block position three.
  • The one who blocked on position two or four: get ball and attack.
  • Position three takes over that spot.

Side a: formationSide
b: someone position 6 - position 5 and position 1

OBJECTIVE
: Side a gets every ball against and tries to score from this situation
.

  • First ball: serve side b
  • Second ball: freeball coming from side b (side b builds up and tries to pass "difficult" freeball)
  • Third ball: attack position 6
  • Third ball: attack position 1


  • Side a is not allowed to place the ball in the 3m line at side b, everything behind the 3.
  • But side b is allowed to attack in the 3m line.
  • Let's see how easy it goes.


  • 3 blockers
  • playmaker,
  • 3 attackers.
  • 1 passer
  • Trainer stands at the side of the block and throws balls at the passer.
  • The passer plays the ball to the SV.
  • SV has a choice of 3 attackers.


block-vs-attack

SIDE A:

  • Block position 2
  • Block position 3
  • 2 with ball at position 6

SIDE B:

  • 2 with ball at pole position 2
  • Player on position 3
  • Player at position 5
  • Attack position 4


OBJECTIVE:

  • Ball is passed to position 5
  • Position 5 brings reception - Position 3 makes pass
  • Attacker attacks in the street #compulsory
    • Matt at position 1
  • Block tries to block ball
    • Positions 3 & 5 in coverage
  • IF BAL IS BLOCKED = pos 3 & 5 have cover ball
    • Cover ball - pass - attack

  • Meanwhile position 6
    • Throw it yourself - attack behind 3 meter line position 6
    • Attack towards position 1 #REQUIRED
  • Turn over:
    • Attacker becomes block position 4
    • Block position 4 becomes block position 3
    • Block position 3 becomes reserve at position 6 (behind 3 attack)
    • The one who attacked behind 3 meter line, comes to play ball


Everyone ball and distribute along two sides of the net.
Gather at the right post

  • Block move with a small step: during the block balls tap each other
    • After the first move, switch sides
  • Block move with one big step: during the block balls tap each other
  • Move the block with two small steps in a row: during the block, balls tap each other.
  • Block displacement with two big steps: during the block balls tap each other
  • Block displacement with first small step and then big step: during the block balls tap each other
  • Block displacement with exit: during the block balls tap each other


Place 2 benches at the net - 3 persons with ball on the bench - 3 persons at the pole at the net

  • 3x 3 times blocks with displacement (then change)

block-timing-and-defense-3

Blocker must look at the attacker

- C gives setup over the net to attacker 1 
- Blocker 2 should look at the attacker when he has to block.
- 3 , 4 and 5 defend
- 1 gets his own ball and 6 is the next attacker.
- after 5 changes

Variation: 2 block

block-timing-and-defense-2

Blocker has to watch attacker

- C sets up over the net to attacker 1
- Blocker 2 has to watch attacker for when to block.
- 3 , 4 and 5 defend
- 1 gets own ball, and 6 is the next attacker

drawing service pass
  • Attacking and blocking 12 players
  • Players A with one ball simultaneously play the ball to S at 2/3
  • At that moment A4 with B1, B2 with B3, and B4 with A3 jump for a dry block
  • S play a set-up to position 4 where A4 and A3 attack along or through block B1 with B2 and B3 with B4
  • Position changes S are fixed playmakers; the five on their own side rotate through (chase the ball).attacks-and-blocks
  • jump on closet without hands
  • block at the net.
