A large, thick mat in the middle of the field.

Surrounded by obstacles to hide behind.

A number of kids is on the mat and have to try to throw the other kids off the mat with the balls.

The other children have to try to get completely around the field before they can hand in, for example, a dot or a ring as a point.

Requirements:

Balls, thick mat, obstacles such as chest or carts, and dots or hats to be used as points.

Basic exercise:

• Trainer throws the ball, player catches the ball and puts it in the cart.
• Then the player goes to the ladder, goes through it, and joins the next line. 

Differentiation/Expansion:

1. Throw difficult balls (left and right, front and back).
2. Play underhand for themselves and catch.
3. Two players get ready next to each other and have to call let go.
4. A setupper is added who has to catch the underhand ball.
5. An attacker is added who has to play the setupper's ball over the net.

• Make trios
• Each trio has a ball.
• Player in the middle keeps running an 8. Every time this player comes in the middle, a ball is thrown:
  • A throws (or plays overarm) the ball to B (in the middle)
  • B throws the ball underhand back to A and then runs around A until he is back in the middle.
  • Meanwhile, A plays the ball to C
  • C returns the ball overarm to B.
  • B plays the ball underhand back to C and then runs around C until he is back in the middle.
  • Enz.
• after 2-3 minutes the player in the middle is changed. 

Variation: 

• To make it simpler, player A and C can throw instead of playing overarm. Could be underhand throwing/catching or overarm throwing/catching.
• To practice standing still when playing/throwing, player B can throw and catch underhand.  

Divide over 3m line. Throw ball in zig-zag pattern and follow. See picture.
Later, play underhand, only overarm. One side of the net underhand, other side overarm.

Make 2 or 3 lines on the end line.
Goal: service has to be correct!! 

• The first of each line serves the ball and picks it up again.
• The next can only serve when tapped.
• If the ball is served into the net, the ball has to be picked up and served again.

Which line has a 100% service score???

• 5x push up (can also be done on knees)
• planking (straight back) 3x with 15 sec. rest in between.
• lie down on your back, cycle for 1 minute
• 10x entire stomach exercise 

• 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.
