PURPOSE

Improve reactivity

ORGANIZATION

Each player stands in a square of pots

IMPLEMENTATION

4 pots for the first person, then 2 pots for each additional person

Each game is given a number (1, 2, 3, 4). Trainer calls out number. Players must tap this number as quickly as possible and return to the middle of the square.

At 'change' they move one square forward and the player in front moves to the square at the back.

PURPOSE

Improve fitness and warm up

ORGANIZATION

Run in circles

IMPLEMENTATION

Run in circles around the field(leave about 2m between them)

  1. when trainer claps 1 time - pump 1 time
  2. when trainer claps 2 times - sliding dive
  3. when trainer claps 3 times - tapping the net
  4. when trainer claps 4 times - sprint a whole circle around the field
  • One side of the court is a team formation, the other players stand with the trainer on the other side.
  • Other players serve to the team (no serving exercise, so moderate serving).
  • The ball will be returned to the other team, preferably in 3x, but at least in 2x.
  • It is allowed to attack, stimulate also to "look" for the holes.
    • Pay attention to the positions of the other players, are they ready to defend the ball?
  • When the ball is on the ground the team position is shifted 1 position.

A cloth is hung over the net so that the players cannot see the opposing team. In this way a rally is played.

Which team has the best reaction?

  • Each trio has a mat.
  • This can be placed anywhere in the field.
  • On the mat 5 wooden blocks are placed.
  • The opponents have to hit the mat with their serve.
  • When the mat is hit, a wooden block can be taken from the mat and placed on your own mat.
  • The first group to have no more blocks on the mat is the loser (or finished).
  • Players stay inside the 3 meter line.
  • Here they have to play over the net in 3 plays, also within the 3 meters.
  • When you have hit a ball, tap the back line.
  • Everyone on one position, we don't play center.
  • Basically you play a small game, with only rallies.
  • At each round you walk the lines as an outside attacker, walk from the front of the net to the three meter line to defend the balls within the three meter.
  • At every rally that goes well over the net, you rotate one spot.
  • See picture.
  • Take turns throwing the ball.
  • After throwing the ball touch the back line and return to the same spot.
  • Throwing good?
  • Then everything underhand. Later all above hands.
