Volleyball drills

Put some mats at different places in the field. The children have to serve on these mats.

Hang the net on the lowest position and let the children attack. Pay special attention to the attacking pass and stroke!

• just replay with 2 teams
• Overhand and underhand: short ball oh and long ball oh (15 times each back and forth)
• Variant: in the back 1 time in front of you (10 times each back and forth)
• Variant: in front of the team, play forwards once (OH and then BH); player who runs to and fro always touches the ground before the ball is played (10 times each backwards and forwards)

5. Tipping: individually through the field

This exercise is for sv only.

SV: The trainer throws the ball towards the sv area. The SVs play the ball into the front left basket. The other SV catches the ball and counts the times the basket is hit or passed (better). After 15 balls the players change.

In the second series the trainer makes the ball harder to play.

The other 5 players will do the exercise 'bounce and play in 3 times on 1 side'.

1. Extend your arms out to the sides with your fists clenched and your thumbs up.
2. Bend forward with your left leg extended until your upper body is completely horizontal while balancing on your right foot. Move your left leg and torso as one.
3. Do the same with your right leg while balancing on your left foot.
4. Repeat these movements several times, alternating between your left and right legs.
