Volleyball drills

Play the ball overhead:

  • Throw the ball from above your head using arm and legs straight up. Catch the ball.
  • Keep your hands above your head at all times
  • Catch the ball
  • arms 'spring in
  • and throw/play straight up by stretching arms
  • etc



  • trainer stands at the other side of the net and throws the ball somewhere in the field
  • player passes ball into basket



  • 2 groups. Each group starts on a different side of the hall with quiet running.
  • When the trainer calls 'yes', the front player of the group sprints to the other group.

attacking-right-front-centre-and-outside

- 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)

3 gives setup on 1 and 1 attacks on 2. 2 defends to 3, 3 gives setup on 2 and 2 attacks on 1, 1 defends on 3 and it starts all over again.

  • 2 rows of players
    • 1 row on the left back
    • 1 row at the right back
  • create with 4 pawns a virtual line where they have to stand behind
