Volleyball drills for technique setting / overarm technique
- Players start on the three-metre line in pairs facing each other.
- One player has the ball.
- At 6 meters from the net there is a cone behind each player.
- Players do a control key and then pass the ball over the net.
- Then they run around the cone behind them.
- The same, but after passing the ball they dive to the cone and get ready again.
- Player does a control key, turns around and keys the ball backwards over the net.
- Then he does a block and returns to his home position.
- Per trio.
- Player A does the control key and plays the ball over the net.
- Player B does reception, C stands at the net and taps the ball high over, then he dives through B's legs and they switch places.
- Four players stand in a square, play around and turn their bodies well in the direction you are playing to.
- Play anti-clockwise, making sure the right foot is in front
- Individual exercise to improve ball feeling with one hand.
- Each player has 1 volleyball, mini volleyball, tennis ball, juggling ball (or for advanced players a non round object; a light plastic container or light bottle for example, but can be used with anything).
- The goal of the players is to keep the ball in the air by hitting it as many times as possible with only one hand.
- Have the players count how many times they can do this per the 2 minutes per task.

- First ball: serve side b
- Second ball: freeball coming from side b (side b builds up and tries to pass "difficult" freeball)
- Third ball: attack position 6
- Third ball: attack position 1
- Side a is not allowed to place the ball in the 3m line at side b, everything behind the 3.

Two rows on the 3m line, edge of the field.
- Pass the ball in a zigzag and follow through.
- Overhand pass
- 1 player overhead, 1 player underhand
- In the lower hands 1x for yourself, pass in the upper hands
- Mandatory 1x for yourself, controlled pass
- It is only allowed to play overhand
- Before the ball goes over the net each player must have hit the ball once (so in total the ball is played 3 times).
- A goal can only be scored inside the 3-meter line. If the ball falls outside the field, or behind the 3-meter line, it is a point for the opponent.
Nice exercise to learn to place the ball overhead within the 3-meter range and to play your teammates with precision overhead.
The one who makes a mistake is replaced by the reserve.
