Volleyball drills
- All players have a ball.
- Divide the group into two - maximum 4 to 5 players per group.
- Near the net is the ball pit.
Exercise per group:
- Play up overhead in front of yourself and keep playing.
- Slowly move towards the net, keep playing up.
- Overhand: Play up high, quickly get under the ball, stand still and then play.
- At the net: => play the ball IN the ball pit. The distance does not matter.
- Ball on the ground => start again from the back line.
Same exercise can be done with underhand play up to the net + play IN the ball box.
For the better players there can be a third round:
- Ball bin on the back line of the other field, players must now pass the net. Play over it, themselves under it. Underhand or overhead no longer matters, as long as the back line is crossed.
Organization:
- Make triplets with 1 ball.
- Playmaker to the right of the ball
Execution:
- Play ball to playmaker
- The dealer passes the ball overhand to the other player.
- This passes the ball overhand or underhand back to the playmaker and receives another setup.
- It is then played to the 1st player, who passes again to the playmaker who has meanwhile run to the opposite side.
Practice on defense, technical attack and drop balls.
- Practice defensive techniques.
- Improve technical attack techniques.
- Practice with drop balls.
- 1 side with block.
- The attacker puts a block.
- The thrower hits over this.
- The libero or passer passes the ball to the server.
- The server passes the ball to the attacker who just blocked.
- The thrower puts a block and the attacker hits straight through to the defender, who defends for himself.
- Passing: passer becomes attacker -> attacker becomes backup defender -> defender becomes backup thrower -> thrower becomes backup passer.

Game:
- Serving from two sides.
- Chasing your ball and moving pawn.
- Rejoin your own team.
Pawn movement:
- If the server serves in the right part => the pawn moves to where the ball hit the ground. You make the goal area smaller.
- If the server does not serve in the correct part => then the pawn moves 1 meter towards the center of the field. Target area bigger.
- Exercise on time => for example 5 minutes.
- Team that has the smallest goal area after 5 min wins!
Then again with other part of the field.
- Conditioning with ball at high intensity
