Volleyball drills for technique passing / defense / reception

• 4 players per field half, on the corners of the field.
• 1 player works, gets 2x a ball from each player. First thrown, diagonally, then hit.
• Movement is clockwise. Move quickly, high tempo exercise.
• If there are more than 10 players, 6 per field half can also be placed.

This exercise is best done with several trainers (e.g. trainer + assistant trainer) and space in the gym.

• Equipment: balls, 3 rings (or pawns/mats)
• Format: divide field in 3 areas
• This exercise is divided into increasing levels of difficulty so that each player can perform the exercise at their own level. This way the exercise remains fun and challenging for everyone.
• Extension possibilities

• FIELD 1:

All players have their own ball. Throw the ball, test it and catch it yourself.

Good X number of times, then move to field 2.

• FIELD 2:

Coach throws ball over net. Player keys and catches ball.

Player retrieves ball, puts in trainer's basket and connects again.

X number of good shots + catch (judged by trainer), then move on to field 3.

• FIELD 3:

Trainer throws ball over net. Player tests, catches and throws ball back over net. Throw ball into the ring/on the mat on the other side of the field.

Retrieve ball by yourself and connect.

• 2 players at the 7 meter line and a SV at the net.
• 1 server on RA, someone on LA and a blocker at the net.
• Server serves to the 2 people across the court.
• They pass to the SV who gives a 3-meter ball or a ball at the net (discuss what you want).
• The blocker tries to block the ball.
• The server passes after the serve and plays out the attack (if possible).

• 1 player who runs in when the ball leaves the court.
• Ball leaves from person standing deep in the field (same side as SV).
• SV turns in and must key ball into the hoops, which is where otherwise attacker will be.
• If in the hoop, put point on scoreboard.
• If next to it, put point on other side.
• Fetch ball and join at the back to key ball in.
• Difference between points = number of abdominal muscles afterwards.

• 3 players at the net with a ball
• Other players without ball on the backline

• Everyone on one position, we don't play center.
• Basically you play a small game, with only rallies.
• At each round you walk the lines as an outside attacker, walk from the front of the net to the three meter line to defend the balls within the three meter.
• At every rally that goes well over the net, you rotate one spot.
