Volleyball drills

  • 4 players on each side of the net,
  • 1 at each antenna,
  • 2 together in the middle on the 5 meter
  • Group is divided into 2 teams.
  • Trainer starts the game by introducing some balls on both sides of the playing field.
  • The players have to pass the balls over the net as often and as much as possible during 3 minutes by throwing the ball to a team mate who passes the ball over the net.
    • This can be BH, and/or OH.
  • The team that has the most balls in the field after 3 minutes, has lost.


So pay attention:

  • teamwork is necessary
  • Stay in each other's neighbourhood.
  • You are not allowed to run with the ball.
  • 2 teams, sometimes 3 teams
    • Throw the ball underhand, fellow player plays it back underhand.
    • Assignment, ball must be returned with a nice curve.
    • After 10 throws, change, and continue.
    • Throw in the ball underhand, teammate plays it back underhand, again in a nice curve,
    • Ball is not caught but returned overhead.
    • Ball is thrown underhand, fellow player shuffles backwards, and plays back underhand with a nice arc.
  • Trainer smashes, throws balls to 3 players on 1 playfield.
  • Players 1, 2 and 3.
  • Per turn 3 balls.
  • These 3 players have to process the smash into a pass to the midfield, in a nice curve.
  • Midfielder catches the ball, and puts it back in the ball bin.
  • Watch out:
    • Player 3 leaves the field, the other 2 move up and are supplemented by new players. Rotation.
