Volleyball drills for technique general

• 6 players on the field
• Trainer or other player puts ball in play.
• 6 players must pass, distribute and attack.
• Play continues until a point is made.
• 6 players are not allowed to play in the 3 meter zone.
• After 5 points there is a change of players.
  • Because of first training, no extra tactical assignments.

• Both sides set up a team, normal game line-up.
• Trainer throws ball into the backfield, team defends and builds up attack, opponent idem, ball is introduced by trainer where mistake is made.
• Quick switching, lasting rallies and no delays as a result of service.
• Regularly turn at the indication of the coach.

• 1 player on each side of the net, the rest join behind the back line.
• (Player A and Player B)
• The ball is played over the net by player A overhead.
• Player B defends the ball underhand,
• Player A runs under the net and gives a pass to Player B.
• Player B plays the ball overhand over the net and then starts giving a pass.
• (Player A connects with the other side at the back)
• If the exercise goes well the ball can be hit quietly over the net.

• 5 (or minus 4) players per side of the field, with 1 ball.
• 4 players stand in the field and 1 player stands at the back line with the ball.
• The 4 players in the field are lined up and the player at the back line of the other side is going to pass the ball over the net (overhand or underhand does not matter for this exercise, but the ball must be over the net!)
• The players are going to defend this ball to the player who gives the pass (this one is run in from position 1).
• This player catches the ball above his head and gives a high pass.
• The ball is caught at the net (no attacking).
• The ball then goes to the server.
• The same exercise is done but now with the other side of the court. After this it is back to the first side to serve.
• So there is one place rotated.
  • After a while the same exercise can be done with an attack (key over the net) where it is important that when the attack is done over the net player 1 and 3 exchange places!!!!!!!

• Speed ladder is from the back line towards the net, in the middle of the field.
• Players move every round with a different movement pattern for the footwork through the speed ladder towards the net, then at position 3 a block, move to position 2 or 4 (alternate) and there a block again.
• Then walk a lap around the square until when they are back at the ladder.

  • and 2 attackers on 4 and 2 who attack diagonally.
    
    

Warming up / all-round training

Each player will pass, attack, distribute, block, defend, rally, with turnovers.
#2 means

• Trainer stands with cart with balls at the pole at #2 (position 2)
• Players stand outside the field at the side of #1 and a playmaker at # 2/3
• First round starts with Trainer throwing the ball to #5, player 1 runs from the sideline to the ball and plays it to the distributor.
• Start with "blue players" (see drawing), then extend with "red players
  
  

Further course of play:

1. Tr throws ball for S1 to #5
2. S1 runs in and plays to Sv (#2/3)
3. Sv gives setup to the outside (#4)
4. S1 attacks.
5. Turn over: S1 becomes Sv, Sv gets the ball and joins the line at #1.
   
   

Expansion 1

1. Sv turns to the other side of the net and becomes a blocker.
   Now the same steps as above, but with the block opposite the attacker.
   
2. Turn over: S1 (has just attacked) becomes Sv at #2/3, Sv
   passes under the net and becomes B1 at #2B1
   who, after blocking, goes to get the ball and joins the row
   
   .
   
   
   
   
   
   

Extend 2

1. After blocking at #2, player goes to defend at #5. Attacker is obliged to pass to #5.
2. When the ball is defended a rally may be played (2 vs. 2)
3. After end of rally or no defence or fault in attack, turn over
   
   

Extend 3 and more

1. One can extend with a 2nd blocker, 2nd and 3rd defender (on resp. #1 and #6)
2. More players can be added to field I (so players from the sideline move in when a rally arises)
3. The passing game becomes S1 (passing and attacking) -> Sv -> B1 (#3) -> B2 (#2) -> V1 (#1) -> V2 (#6) -> V3 (#5) possibly A2 (#4) and then connect again.
4. You can expand to 6 against 6, so start with blue, then B1, then B2, then V1, then V2 (when continuing the game, first V2 and then V1), then V3 (continuing the game with V2, V3, V1) and then possibly A1. In the meantime, players in field I must be added.
5. If there are several players in Area I, you can choose to throw in a ball on S1 at #5 instead of throwing in a ball through Tr.

• In the field there is a team formation.
• After each service rally finish and turn around a spot, so everyone knows his place.
• After that a game of 6 against 4.
