  • If the ball is blocked, the blockers have a point.
  • After 10 attacks change


After 10 minutes we make it more difficult:

A block is added, the outside player closes the block diagonally (left hand at attacker's arm).

The blocker also gets points (touching the ball = 1, killing block = 2).

Make 2 teams of about 5 children. Each team stands on one side of the field. Place 5 balls on both 3meter lines.

When the trainer calls GO, everyone rolls the balls to the other side. Who has the least balls in their field after 3 minutes has won.

3 players stand at the net with a ball. The rest stand in a line behind the backline, the first player (A) of the line steps in the backfield. Net player 1 attacks quietly, A passes back. Net player 2 throws a short high ball, A passes back (OH or BH). Net player 3 throws a long high ball, A passes back OH and joins the back of the row again. Depending on the size of the group you can play on 2 sides of the net or everyone on 1 side.
