Volleyball drills

Team 2
: One player sits on the ground with legs wide and has the ball.
The other player is standing.

• The sitting player rolls the ball 1x along the left leg and the standing player taps the ball back.
• After this the ball goes past the right leg and the standing player moves with closing pass to this ball and taps it back.
• This way from left to right on a good tempo.

• Player A throws ball over the net.
• Player B or C passes ball to other player
• The other player quickly runs to the net and sets up the ball for the same player who passed.
• This player tries to get a pawn off the bench with overhand play or a hitting move.
• Change after 5 balls

Which pair or team has knocked off/handled the most pawns after X number of minutes?

• Player A throws ball over the net.
• Player B or C passes the ball over the net.
• The other player quickly runs under the net and sets up the ball for the same player who passed.
• This player tries to get a pawn off the bench with overhand play or a hitting move.

Which pair or team has knocked the most pawns off the bench after X number of minutes?

- 1 defender starts behind the back line
- C plays high ball in the field
- 1 comes in and plays overhead to S
- S sets up backwards to 4
- attack straight ahead, attacker gets the ball
- 1 becomes attacker and 2 defender

SETS UP THE BASKET (BLOCK IDEA)

• Player A throws/strikes the ball towards player C.
• Player C passes the ball to player B.
• Player B sets up the ball.
• Player C attacks.

Goal: try to attack/play 3rd ball on the mats (straight or diagonal).

After each ball move one place in your own group.

Extension: When there are enough players one could also choose to place a block.

3 players at the net at equal distance from each other (1, 2, 3, 4).
3 players on the backline (A, B, C, D).

• Player A plays BH to player 1,
• player 1 plays BH back,
• player A plays BH to player 2,
• player 2 plays BH back,
• etc.

The moment player A plays to player 2, player B starts playing BH to player 1, etc.

• 3 teams 1 ball.
• A and B stand at the net and C stands opposite A on the back line.
• A plays ball to C, C plays BH diagonally to B.
• Meanwhile A moves opposite B and then A plays the ball BH to C.
• After 20 x passes turn over

One scapegoat is appointed, this scapegoat must try to catch the other players within the yellow lines.

• Has the ticker ticked 3 players? Next ticker!
• The whole volleyball field is the playing field.
• In the middle of the field the net hangs about 40 cm above the ground (do not tighten the bottom line for safety reasons).
• The players and tickers can dive under the net to get to the other side of the court.

First, a quick turn in.

1 playmaker

1 "false-dead" in the other half

1 attacker without ball

The rest with the ball line up behind the attacker.

• Number 1 with the ball throws to the playmaker, who gives a set up and the attacker tries to score.
• The sham is going to try to pass and catch the ball, if he succeeds, the attacker is "dead" and has to take over the place of the sham who may now join the line.
• If the attacker scores he will get the ball and join the back of the line.
• This continues until there is only 1 attacker left, if he scores again, he or she is the winner.
• The last ball is thrown by the trainer.

This exercise is fun to do and gives a lot of fun and competition! Relays in general already create competition.

What this exercise also wants to mimic is the stress factor that a serve brings.

The players are divided into equal teams and lined up on the serving area of the same court. The first player of a team serves and retrieves his ball. After the next player is tapped, this one serves, and so on.

It is important for a player to serve quickly, but it must also be flawless, otherwise the ball must be retrieved and served again!

Needs:

• A minimum of 6 players
• As many balls as there are teams

• Player A throws/strikes the ball towards player C.
• Player C passes the ball to player B.
• Player B sets up the ball.
• Player C attacks.

Goal: try to attack/play 3rd ball on the mats (straight or diagonal).

After each ball move one place in your own group.

Extension: When there are enough players one could also choose to place a block.
