Volleyball drills
- Serve in pairs over the net from the (back) line.
- If necessary divide over 2 fields.
- Distribute the hoops on one side of the net.
- Child with ball in serving position, other stands in a hoop on the other side.
- If the ball can be caught without stepping out of the hoop, the hoop is won.
- After each serve change position, until there are no more hoops.
- Which team collects the most hoops?
- 2 rows of players
- 1 row on the left back
- 1 row at the right back
- Create with 4 pawns a virtual line where they must stand behind
- Trainer stands at the other side of the net and throws the ball somewhere in the field
- One of the two front row players calls LOS orI (let's agree)
- This player passes the ball over the net to the previous player.
- Catch a round for the next player
- If you did not have the ball, join the shortest row
- A and A1 play their ball to SV1 and SV2 at the same time.
- SV high ball.
- SV1 & 2 exchange places + pas s to the corner, where A & A1 attack.
- SV, Block on attack from A & A1.
Intention is to load the playmakers. Pass to position 4.
- Players play two against two.
- Each time the ball is over, they walk over to the other side of the net and join in behind.
- The goal is to keep the ball in play as long as possible.
- If a team makes a mistake, they have to dive to the other side.

- Individual exercise to improve ball feeling with one hand.
- Each player has 1 volleyball, mini volleyball, tennis ball, juggling ball (or for advanced players a non round object; a light plastic container or light bottle for example, but can be used with anything).
- The goal of the players is to keep the ball in the air by hitting it as many times as possible with only one hand.
