Volleyball drills for technique general
- Along both sides of the net stand groups in 2.
- In this group of 2, someone throws the ball and the other does underhand.
- To make it harder:
- Throw left & right
- Or throw backwards & forwards.
Organization:
- Trainers with ball cart on field B
- Players with hoop on field A on 7m-line
- Players hold the hoop with 2 hands
Execution:
- Trainer throws the ball in an arc over the net
- Player comes in and puts the hoop on the spot where the ball is going to fall
- Same as 1, but catches the ball with 2 hands at navel height
- Same as 2, but now plays the ball underhand.
Organization:

- Make a turn in the run and catch the ball
- Sprint from lying position to the ball and catch it
- At the place where the ball is going to fall, lie down and let the ball bounce on your back
- Per person 2 balls
- One ball between the legs/under the arm, other in two hands on a side of choice, throw ball straight up and catch with two hands
- When the ball is up on one side, throw the other ball up on the other side.
- Keep arms straight, throw as much as possible straight up
- Pairs 2 balls.
- One person throws a ball straight to the other person
- Meanwhile the other person throws his ball straight up and throws it back.
- Then catch your own ball
- 1 player at position 2.
- 1 player on position 3.
- Coach or player on position 4.
- Rest of the players in a line behind the back line at position 1.
- Player at position 2 throws a deep ball.
- Player passes back.
- Player at position 3 throws a short ball inside the three meter line.
- Player passes back ball.
- Player/coach at position 4 hits or throws a deep ball.
- Player passes it back and joins the back of the row again.
- Don't forget to pass regularly!
- Coach stands in the middle by the net.
- Line of three players stand behind the back line.
- Trainer throws balls alternately to the right and then to the left.
- Players start walking in circles because they are in threes.
- Players who are not in line are collecting balls.
- Playmaker at the net.
- Two middle attackers, two outside and two diagonal.
- Other players line up to pass.
- Trainer puts ball in play from the other side of the net.
- Passer passes, playmaker chooses attacker and an attack is made.
- After the attack players get the ball and join the passers.
- After passing attack on your own position (or an empty position).
- There is one passer in the field at position [6].
- The trainer or a playmaker stands with the balls at the net at position [3].
- The ball is introduced by hitting or pricking and there is a variation in short/long and hard/soft.
- The passer keeps the ball from the ground (prio 1) and provides the pass to [2/3] (prio 2) where the ball is caught by a team mate.
- This exercise can be played in two variants.
- A. [suitable for large teams]
- After the pass, a new player is rotated into the field and the passer joins the back of the line.
- High tempo!
- The team can be split in two, so that one team always picks up the balls from the other team.
- B. [suitable for small teams]
- The passer remains standing.
- He quickly takes up his position again after the pass and processes a new ball (10 in total).
- The other players spread out to collect the balls.
- After 10 passes the passer takes off and the ball is passed.
- High tempo!
- Explanation:
- 2 teams of 3 players
- Per team 3 volleyballs (different balls so you can tell the difference, 2 'baby' and 1 'normal' ball)
- The team must play the 'normal' ball over the net in 3 times and meanwhile the 'babies' are thrown over.
- Each player may only touch the 'normal' ball once!
- (When a player has played the 'regular' ball, he gets a 'baby' thrown to him)
- Starting positions:
- Mid-back has no ball. Mid-back has no ball (he passes the ball to the distributor).
- Distributor gives a set-up on the outside.
- 3rd player plays the ball over the net. (At first do not attack, only if it goes well!)
- This exercise is about the movement of the middle block and cooperation with the outside blocker.
- The ball is introduced through service or throw in (by the trainer or team-mate).
- Service is towards the passer.
- Passer brings the ball to the distributor.
- The distributor sets up the attack.
- After 10 attacks the game is continued.
- Players prefer to play on their own position.
- Important for the exercise:
- The playmaker communicates with his attackers about the desired attacking position and speed (especially the alternation between rise and short of the middle attacker).
- Mid block jumps with a rising attack (not full).
- If the ball goes outside, he lands on his left foot and moves outside to set up a two-man block (connecting).
- If the ball is played over middle, the outside blocker steps out to make a pass if the ball falls short or is hit.
- Basic setup.
- After processing the service, a rally is played.
- At the net are 3 players with 1 ball.
- On the place of attack a ball is immediately thrown back and has to be drained.
- Play all balls and then rotate through.
- Organization:
- Split group into trios with one hoop.
- They stand on field A at p1.
- Trainer with the balls on field B.
- Execution:
- Player hold the hoop together.
- Trainer hits ball.
- Trio must try to bounce the ball through the hoop.
- Retrieve ball and hand it in to Tr.
- Next trio.
- In addition to ball lane recognition, they learn to work together and communicate.
