• A and B stand at the net and C faces A.
• A throws ball to C, C hits to B and B plays bra bl past the net to A.

Goal: Libero training and defense

• T plays in tempo the balls to SV. 
• SV set-up (2nd tempo) to A (position 3) --> targeted attack to position 1 or to B (position 4) --> targeted attack to position 6.
• L starts from pos 6 + defense to SV2

Extension 1 : After defense from L to SV, set-up to position 4 where C attacks (aimed) 

Extension 2 : L2 defended attack from C, C is going to catch ball. 

Purpose: peripheral view. 

• C plays the ball to L. 
• L plays the ball to pos 3/2 --> SV2
• Meanwhile, B3 moves to pos 2 or 4. (draw. to 2)
• SV2 setup to the pos. where there is only one block. 
• C goes blocking 
• A attacks.

Meanwhile: 

• T plays ball to SV1
• SV1 setup to attacker where there are two blocks. 

Extension : field defense. 

Goal of the exercise is, the playmaker must try to make sure that on the other side of the net a double block can not be formed. 

• T plays the balls at a high pace towards pos. 3.
• SV walks in and gives set-up for -or backwards to fool the block. 
• B tries to come to a drawbar block on attack.
• SV passes around T after set-up. 
• SV1 & 2 switch positions after each set-up. 

Expansion :

• B's play ball high back over to attacker passing towards pos 3/2
• Exercise starts again from pass attacker. 

The goal of the core is, that the players can play the ball far overhead

• The players face each other in pairs and play overhead
• Hands well above the head, from the legs, body stretching and point towards the ball when releasing
• The players stand further and further apart from each other.
• Then we form two rows diagonally across the field and we play BH, chasing your ball

• Pass the ball overhead to each other in a snake-like figure
  • Two rows of players that face each other.
  • No. 1 plays the ball straight over and connects at the end of the snake.
  • Nr 2 plays the ball diagonally over and connects to the end of the snake and so on. 
• Hang on as long as possible (field around!)? 

Divide "field" in 4 boxes. Exercise can be done with 2 persons at the same time, in which every player controls someone. The ball has to be played overarm, playing the ball high, and get to the other side like this.  ;

• Divide the field in 4 boxes, playing the ball in every box at least 3 times.
• Every player gets 2 turns, in which the best turn counts.
• How far are you going to get

Directions for post holders

1. Play up at least 3x per box: otherwise you cannot proceed to the next box
2. The turn is over, when:
   1. the ball drops on the ground
   2. the player has both feet outside the box (1 foot outside the box is allowed!).
   3. the ball is not played high enough above the head (pay close attention!)
3. Play at least 50 cm above the head.
4. Every new turn start in the first box.
5. The lines are part of the box (with regard to foot fouls outside the boxes).

• The trainer randomly plays 1 or 2. 
• From there, a set up to the other (1 or 2) is given for attacking. 
• Depending on where the attack happens, 6 players on the other side of the net take the correct positions. 
• Blocking, defending, and play over the net to me. 
• High tempo. 
• If the ball is not defended, throw it to my side of the net so that we can continue.
