Volleyball drills
- 1 person at the net, a back defender, a catcher and someone at the other side of the net.
- The person at the other end of the net throws the ball, just over the block before the three meter line.
- The defender comes from behind and stands on his good starting position. There he has to play the ball to the catcher.
After each attack, rotate through one (1) position.

- Place 3 pawns around a player.
- 1 to the left, 1 to the right and 1 behind (working player)
- Another player, with the ball, is going to indicate to which pawn the working player has to move (good posture = hands loose in front of the body).
