ball-control

The exercise is as follows:

  • 1 Player 1 throws a tight ball to player 7
  • 2a player 7 passes the ball to the playmaker
  • 2b player 1 walks to the other line and joins the back.

  • This can also be done a middle attack

After 10 minutes, a block is added

  • Trainers: shows basis, right leg forward, make plank, step in, etc.
  • In pairs with 1 ball. Player at the net throws ball to player in the back which passes back. Is the pass correct, then play overarm, but be strict!! 20 balls, then change.
    (Score keeping every good ball is a point)
  • Idem, only now the balls are thrown short/long, so back player has to move forwards/backwards.
  • Player waits at the net in block position.
  • Trainer throws ball over and player moves back and passes ball into basket.
  • Back through the other side.
  • Player keys over and underhand passes into basket.
drawing Moving backwards - pass
  • 3 attackers
  • 2 passers
  • 1 backup passer
  • 1 playmaker
  1. Trainer hits balls to the passers, after your pass you take the place of the attacker who attacked.
  2. Except on middle. The middle attacker stays in position and only changes with another middle.
  3. High tempo so change positions quickly.
Divide the group into two.
  • 1 SV on the side for attack
  • 1st player blue has no ball the rest do
  • 1st player blue sprints around the pawn, then gets one of va the 2nd players thrown on --> pass to the other side - red defender
  • Red defender passes to SV
  • SV gives setup an attack on 52
ROTATION
  • Blue passer --> guard red
  • Attacker gets the ball himself and joins behind line of blue
drawing Warm up with pass
  • Divide the group into 4 (or more) players
  • Player (divider) at the net with ball
  • The rest of the players in defense. Each player has 1 ball with the exception of 1 player
Exercise:
  • Player at the net constantly distributes the ball to a defender with ball --> player throws his ball to player without ball and passes the ball back to the player at the net.

Passing exercises:

  1. In a group of 5 players, the ball should be played to the setter at position 2, who then sets the ball to position 3 set. The catcher catches the ball.
  2. Play 2 against 2 with a net in between, where all passes must be underhanded and the ball must be passed between them at least once.
  3. Play out a rally: the trainer throws the ball on and the group handles the ball and plays out the rally.
Quality is important in every exercise, including movement after the action. The passer must move with the ball, the setter must move with the ball after the set, and so on.
TR on 1 side with ball box.
1 SV which changes regularly.
1 fixed passer which changes regularly -if libero present, this passer will continue to pass-.
The rest will attack 52/C and MID

With more players:
  • Multiple defenders.
  • Blocking
  • Instead of TR a player can pass the ball.
  • On the side of the TR/ player setting up the ball put an extra player who puts the attacked ball in ball box and then goes to defend.
Rotation:
Defending - attacking - catching ball in ball box - defending.
