Volleyball drills
- Per person 2 balls
- One ball between the legs/under the arm, other in two hands on a side of choice, throw ball straight up and catch with two hands
- When the ball is up on one side, throw the other ball up on the other side.
- Keep arms straight, throw as much as possible straight up
- Pairs 2 balls.
- One person throws a ball straight to the other person
- Meanwhile the other person throws his ball straight up and throws it back.
- Then catch your own ball
- 3 defenders at 1 side of the court the rest at the other side all with ball (server)
- Servers serve the ball, the defenders have to pass it to the TR (position 2/3)
- Change players regularly!
- Point count:
- Good serve and bad pass is 1 point, but wrong serve is deduction of one point --> servers
- Good pass is 1 point, but wrong pass is deduction of one point --> defenders
- Who is first to reach 7 points
- TR rolls the ball to the servers
- Half of the team lined up at position 2.
- Other half of the team with ball at position 5.
- Just start throwing in and chasing the ball.
- Extend with passing at position 5 and overhand at position 2.
- Then expand further by adding exercises like blocking at the net, diving etc.
- 1 player at position 2.
- 1 player on position 3.
- Coach or player on position 4.
- Rest of the players in a line behind the back line at position 1.
- Player at position 2 throws a deep ball.
- Player passes back.
- Player at position 3 throws a short ball inside the three meter line.
- Player passes back ball.
- Player/coach at position 4 hits or throws a deep ball.
- Player passes it back and joins the back of the row again.
- Don't forget to pass regularly!
- Coach stands in the middle by the net.
- Line of three players stand behind the back line.
- Trainer throws balls alternately to the right and then to the left.
- Players start walking in circles because they are in threes.
- Players who are not in line are collecting balls.
- 1 server, on the other side of the field 3 passers, with behind them again 3 passers who are ready.
- The server taps the ball, the passers run to the middle line, run backwards and the server serves.
- Play 3 times, everyone on the field.
- Change positions.
- Then with back to server, taps the ball, passers run into the field after which the server serves.
- Organization:
- Divide 2 quads on both fields.
- Players stand on 3m-line.
- The first player on field A has a ball.
- Implementation:
- Player on field A with the ball throws it with 2 hands from the neck over the net, runs under the net over the backline and joins behind it.
- The first player on field B catches the ball and throws it back and runs under the net as well.
- Regularly change the way of throwing: with: right hand, with left hand and throws from chest height.
- After 2 or 3 minutes let the bra play. Now it is no longer necessary to walk over the back line.
- After 2 minutes, make a block jump before passing under the net.
- Then after the block jump, move sideways and make another block jump.
- Attention point:
- The rally must be kept going.
- In case BH cannot be played, OH may be played.
- Code warm-up game.
- You make 2 or 3 groups.
- You come up with a code of about 8 numbers. {depending on the condition of the team}
- Say my code is 11325543.
- 1- 2 x run to the net and back.
- 2- 5x abs.
- 3- 5 times blocking.
- 4- 2 x dive.
- 5- 20 seconds in sitting position against the wall.
- The pair tries to decipher the code.
- They do 1 of the 5 exercises, then come to the trainer to see if the number is correct.
- If yes:
- May they try to guess the next one.
- If no:
- They have to choose another number to guess the code.
- Who deciphers the code first, wins.
- Playmaker at the net.
- Two middle attackers, two outside and two diagonal.
- Other players line up to pass.
- Trainer puts ball in play from the other side of the net.
- Passer passes, playmaker chooses attacker and an attack is made.
- After the attack players get the ball and join the passers.
- After passing attack on your own position (or an empty position).
- Organization:
- Divide the group over the 2 fields.
- 2 players on pos 2 with 1 ball, 1 on 4, 1 on 5 and 1 on 1
- Execution:
- Ball is played from p2 BH to 4.
- On p4 the ball is hit technically to p1.
- The latter defends the ball at 3m p3 and at that moment the player on p5 comes and plays the ball Bh to p2.
- And it starts all over again.
- Walk:
- P2 to p4.
- P4 to p5.
- P5 to p1.
- P1 to p2.
- There is one passer in the field at position [6].
- The trainer or a playmaker stands with the balls at the net at position [3].
- The ball is introduced by hitting or pricking and there is a variation in short/long and hard/soft.
- The passer keeps the ball from the ground (prio 1) and provides the pass to [2/3] (prio 2) where the ball is caught by a team mate.
- This exercise can be played in two variants.
- A. [suitable for large teams]
- After the pass, a new player is rotated into the field and the passer joins the back of the line.
- High tempo!
- The team can be split in two, so that one team always picks up the balls from the other team.
- B. [suitable for small teams]
- The passer remains standing.
- He quickly takes up his position again after the pass and processes a new ball (10 in total).
- The other players spread out to collect the balls.
- After 10 passes the passer takes off and the ball is passed.
- High tempo!
- The goal is to play the ball in threes. This requires the commitment of every player.
- So line up three players.
- They solve a thrown ball (by the trainer), by playing in threes.
- The first ball is passed to the upper-position.
- The 2nd player, who has the job of upper-player, runs to the upper-place.
- The 3rd player then prepares for the attack.
- At first keep the ball on one side of the net, by not actually hitting the 3rd ball, but catching it.
- Then 3 other players move in to do the same.
- On the other side of the net, the same is practiced with the other half of the team.
- After a while, when the ball is regularly played in threes, the ball is actually played to the other side.
- The team on the other side then plays the ball back in threes.
- And so on; play over as long as possible.
- No scoring, it's about playing in threes.
