Volleyball drills

• Three players on the back line.
• At about one meter from the sidelines you put a pylon.
• The other players stand around the field to pick up the balls.
• The trainer at the net throws the balls into the field at a high speed.
• It is up to the players to pass the balls back to the trainer, or at least to hit the ball.
• Then the players join in again at the back, and so they keep running and looking at the ball.
• The remaining players stand around the field to collect the balls played away and pass them back to the trainer.
• Expansion:
• Pawns further apart, throwing faster, hitting.

• 2 teams(6,8,10 or 12 players)
• 1 person in the field.
• Other players stand behind the back line in the waiting room.
• T puts ball in play in field A or B.
• You may only play the ball underarm.
• After playing the ball step out and someone in the waiting room takes your place.
• If you make a mistake, make sure you have the ball safe and go and cheer on your teammates.
• If everyone on a team has played away then you have a point.

• 2 teams stand in a large circle,
• in the middle there are balls (1 less than the number of pairs)
• Person A goes on the back of Person B
• When the trainer says yes, A jumps off his back and runs around the circle.
• In the meantime B has put his legs wide so that A can pass between them.
• A goes between the legs of B and picks up a ball as fast as possible.
• Etc. until there is a winner.

2 players stand about 3 metres apart and play the ball to each other.

Variant with 3 players

• Same exercise, but one player stands between
• the other two and acts as distributor.
• Defense always goes to the player in the middle who then sets up the other player.
• This player passes the ball back to the other player who passes to the playmaker, and so on...
• After a while the middle (defender) player is changed.

• 2 players each side of the net.
• Player throws the ball over the net.
• is passed to the distributor and
• then set-up and
• then quietly over the net.
• Other side passes it back to the distributor and so on.
• Extend this to a complete 3-meter attack.

• 6 players stand on position in the field.
• The rest on the other side. Save and occasionally bring in a fast ball by trainer.
• After 5 times turn around.
• or let the team save by themselves.

This exercise is for the pass and playmaker.

• 1 must save
• 3 passers
• 1 playmaker

The game proceeds as follows:

• service
• Ball is passed to the distributor. Distributor must play the ball into the basket.
• Players turn except for distributor.

• from back line to 3 meter line
• shuffle back
• Make an attack (without the ball)
• back to 3 meter line
• 3x blocks
• Dive back to backline

• you have 2 passers on ra and la
• trainer throws/serves the ball over the net to the 2 passers.
• after having called loose, pass the ball to sv on 2/3
• sv gives set up to lv
• someone on the other side of the net tries to block and otherwise retrieve the ball

Hole 1

• Start on back line (2 players, rest of the field is empty)
• Play over 3x with pass, set-up, attack.
• Pass under the net (keep playing).
• Hit the antenna with the swing.
• Failed to start again at the back line, succeeded to go to hole 2.

Hole 2

• Hit the ball from the backline into the net.
• Person 2 "fishes" and gives set-up (2 plays).
• Person 1 comes forward and plays overhands against the antenna.

• 2 balls per pair.
• One throws the ball, the other plays back the BH.
• Throw in the second ball when the first one comes back.
• Together they keep 2 balls in the air: so twice as much ball-contact as when working with 1 ball.
• Variations/expansions: throw something left/right (move > stand still), throw short/long.
