Volleyball drills

• There are 2 teams who both stand behind the back line.
• In the middle between the two teams are 9 hoops in rows of 3, each team has 5 bags/ ribbons/pins.
• At the start sign of the trainer, one person of each group may run and place a bag or move a bag of the opponent.
• When this player is back behind the line, the next one may run.
• The first team to get 3 in a row wins the game.

• Make pairs. Each pair has 2 tennis balls.
• Player 1 holds arms extended outward with 1 tennis ball in each hand.
• Player 2 stands about 1 meter in front of player 1.
• Player 1 drops 1 ball in a random order.
• Player 2 must try to catch the ball as fast as possible to prevent it from falling on the ground.

In all exercises, the players must try to get to the other side by performing tasks through teamwork.
At every task all players have to stay in contact, otherwise they have to start all over again.

• Come all the way across, 4 players are not allowed to touch the ground.
• Cross the street all together, 6 players must not touch the ground.
• Cross the finish line on six legs and three players are not allowed to touch the ground.
• Cross the street on 9 legs and everybody has to hold on to somebody else's leg.
• Cross the street on 8 hands and 6 legs.
• Cross the finish line on 10 hands and 6 legs.

These exercises are based on 9 players, the exercises can also be adapted for more or less players.

• Make two groups, these two players stand behind each other.
• All groups together form a circle.
• In the middle there are 4 balls (if there are 5 groups).
• The players have to jump on the back and off the back of their teammates on command of the trainer.
• The trainer can call up, down and yes.
• When the trainer says Yes, the back players have to run around the whole circle as fast as possible.
• Then they have to go through the legs of their own team to get the ball in the middle.
  
  

• Make 2 groups (in case of unequal groups, 1 person has to play 2 times).
• Each group has 1 ball and stands behind the backline.
• At the signal of the trainer, one person jumps to the net with the ball between his ankles.
• When he is under the net he has to sprint around the pole and back to his team.
• When this player is behind the back line she may pass the ball on to the next one.
• When the whole team has done this, everyone has to sit behind the back line and the team that does this first wins.

• There are 2 teams who both stand behind the back line.
• In the middle between the two teams are 9 hoops in rows of 3, each team has 5 bags/ ribbons/pins.
• At the start sign of the trainer, one person of each group may run and place a bag or move a bag of the opponent.
• When this player is back behind the line, the next one may run.

• Make pairs. Each pair has 2 tennis balls.
• Player 1 holds arms extended outward with 1 tennis ball in each hand.
• Player 2 stands about 1 meter in front of player 1.
• Player 1 drops 1 ball in a random order.
• Player 2 must try to catch the ball as fast as possible to prevent it from falling on the ground.

• Everyone is divided over the room.
• Then everyone takes 2 persons in mind and gives these persons and themselves a number. 1, 2 or 3.
• The player must now make sure that he is standing in a straight line with these 2 players (in order 1-2-3).
• But everyone has other players in mind so chaos ensues and the players must work together to find a solution.

Make two teams. These players face each other with a ball in the middle on the ground.
The trainer takes turns calling out something for the players to do. This can be :

• Head (tap head)
• Shoulders (tap the shoulders)
• Knee (tap the knees)
• Toe (tap toes)
• Ball (grab the ball)

The pairs compete against each other, trying to get the ball as quickly as possible and win.

• The players line up at position 5 with ball,
• a set-upper at position 2/3,
• one attacker at position 4.
• 1 player stays out of the rotation for a while and sits on a chair in the middle at the other side of the court with 6 sheets (on them number 1 to 6).
• The players are going to build up an attack,
  • position 5 throws the ball,
  • position 2/3 gives a set-up
  • and position 4 passes the ball over.
• The player at the other side of the net, when the set-upper plays the ball, holds up one of the six leaves with number.
• The attack must pay attention to this and play the ball on the spot indicated by the player on the chair.

• The player behind the first attacker throws the ball to the distributor.
• This player passes the ball on to the attacker at the net. (Free hit)
• Extension:
  • 3 defenders at the other side of the field.
  • The attackers hit the defense.
  • They pass the ball to the defender's position.
    • If necessary, place a basket through which the ball must pass.

• The trainer throws the ball over to 1 of the 3 players and the passer runs around the cone to the mat and tries to catch the ball on the mat and put it in the basket.
• The 2 reserves do ladder exercises and then one of the reserves takes the place of the reception player and the reception player becomes a passer and the passer becomes a reserve.
• While the one player does the reception, the other two move to their home positions and get ready to attack.
