Volleyball drills

ball track = letters of the alphabet

• Teams stand on both sides of the net.
• Explain three plays --> pass/set-up, catch throw, pass/set-up over the net.
• Play overhand from the backline. After three serves of one player, the team rotates one spot.
• They don't have to leave the field after a 'mistake'. For every ball that falls on the ground the opponent gets a point.

• With this exercise the players learn how to play 'smart'. just over the net or in the back corners.
• The field is divided into two halves. On both halves there is a row of players.
• On the other side of the net are hoops, on the places where normally no players stand.
• The players throw the ball in front of themselves and play the ball overhand into the hoops. For every bale in the hoop they get one point, the team with the most points has won. (addition: the trainer plays the ball and the players play into the hoops).

• Trainer stands with ball carrier at the net
• Players divide into 2 groups
• 1 group stands on the left side of the field other group stands on the right side of the field

• Trainer throws the ball alternately left and right of the field,
• players have to catch the ball and put it back in the cart and then close again on the other side.
• Extension: players can play reception to the net and catch the ball themselves.

• Form groups of 3-4 players.
• Pass under/overhands as often as possible.

• Everyone on a line with the ball between their feet.
• always jump with the ball between your legs
• Variant 1:
  • jump with 2 legs towards another line
• variant 2:
  • do 1 jump forward
  • turn half a turn
  • do 1 jump backwards
  • turn half a turn, etc.
• Variant 3:
  • put pawns/hats down and let them zigzag
  • move sideways (face forward)
• make it a competition

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.
