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

On your own:

• Throwing the ball straight up above your head. Using legs and arms. Catch the ball.
• Keep the ball in the air, it doesn't matter how. Let's get it warm.
• Play the ball 5x (or more) with overhand technique
• Play 5x (or more) the ball with underhand technique

Per 2 players:

• 10x throwing and catching the ball with overhand technique
• Throw the ball correctly 10 times, the other player plays it back overhand. And vice versa
• Pass the ball correctly 10 times, the other player returns underhand. Vice versa.

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.

- 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.

• 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.

• Trainer throws the ball to the middle player
• He passes to SV
• SV gives setup
• Attacker plays the ball SLIMLY over the net
  • so just obver the net
  • Or in the back of the field in the corners
• On the other side there are 2 people blocking and defending behind.
• Attacker gets the ball and puts it with trainer (in the box)
• Everybody turns 1 spot (runs after their own ball)
• Give instructions all the time
  • 

• the coach is at the net.
• 1 person in the field.
• the trainer throws difficult balls
• the person in the field has to touch the balls 3 times in a row.
• if he/she does not do this, you continue until he/she succeeds.
• The rest of the players stand around the field to catch the balls and put them back in the cart.
