Volleyball drills for technique attack / smash / spike / hitting

• The goal of the exercise is twofold: the defender must learn to 'read' where the attacker is going to hit and the attacker must look where the defence is before hitting.
• We work with two regular playmakers, on both sides of the field a row of attackers on the left-for position.
• And two defenders, who may choose where they position themselves on the field.
• A defender has to defend the attack 10 times, preferably a nice pass, but touching is enough.
• If the attacker hits the net or leaves the field, that also counts.
• And the attackers may only smash, no prick balls!
• After the attack, the attacker retrieves the ball and joins the other row.
• The attacker who defends the ball at the 10th time takes the place of the defender.
• The defender will then of course attack.

Necessary:

• 8 - 10 players
• enough balls

If there are less players, the exercise can also be done, but then on one side. The attacker retrieves the ball and joins the same line.

The blocker joins in, indicates where he is going to block and the mid-back goes to his place.

• 3 people at the net. (left, centre, right)
• 2 3 people at the back.
• On the other side 1 playmaker
• The rest is going to attack.
• Tim plays the balls.
• They attack the middle.
• The center on the other side of the block.
• The front left and right get behind the block to defend.
• The people in the back also defend on their position.
• After 2 minutes the players change.

• 3 passers in the field
• playmaker on the right front
• middle and outside attacker
• 3 servers
