Per 2:

  • Player A stands at the net, player B lies on the 3-meter line.
  • At the moment player A throws up the ball to test, player B stands up.
  • Player A plays BH to player B, player B does OH to player A.
  • Player A gives a pass to player B, player B tries to play into a hoop.


The hoops represent the number of shots that must be drunk.

  • Hoop 1 = 1 shot
  • Hoop 2 = 2 shots


Variation 1
: Player A plays the first ball via a technical attack.

Variation 2:
Player B plays the ball with a hard overhead contact over the net.

  • You may only play the ball overhand within the 3m line.
  • After playing the ball step out and someone in the waiting room takes your place.

  • 2 players with 2 (different) balls.
  • 1 ball is only passed overhead about 3-4 meters,
  • The other ball is thrown over in the opposite direction.
  • The players move from one sideline to the other sideline.
