  • Make trios
  • Each trio has a ball.
  • Player in the middle keeps running an 8. Every time this player comes in the middle, a ball is thrown:
    • A throws (or plays overarm) the ball to B (in the middle)
    • B throws the ball underhand back to A and then runs around A until he is back in the middle.
    • Meanwhile, A plays the ball to C
    • C returns the ball overarm to B.
    • B plays the ball underhand back to C and then runs around C until he is back in the middle.
    • Enz.
  • after 2-3 minutes the player in the middle is changed. 


Variation: 

  • To make it simpler, player A and C can throw instead of playing overarm. Could be underhand throwing/catching or overarm throwing/catching.
  • To practice standing still when playing/throwing, player B can throw and catch underhand.  

ribbon-pass-2-

Divide over 3m line. Throw ball in zig-zag pattern and follow. See picture.
Later, play underhand, only overarm. One side of the net underhand, other side overarm.

 

Make 2 or 3 lines on the end line.
Goal: service has to be correct!! 

  • The first of each line serves the ball and picks it up again.
  • The next can only serve when tapped.
  • If the ball is served into the net, the ball has to be picked up and served again.

Which line has a 100% service score???

  • The trainer puts the ball on the middle line.
  • On the end line on both sides of the net is a line of players.
  • At the trainer's signal, the run to the ball, who has it can keep it.

Which team collects the most balls

Service pass training for 4 to 12 persons
4 persons:

Back muscles. Lie down flat on the floor face down. Place your hands on your back, and slowly get up as far as you can. Breathe out when you get up, and breathe in when you lie down again. Keep your eyes on the floor. We do this exercise 20 times. 

Stomach muscles. After the last exercise, we turn around and lie on our backs face upwards. Grab your partner and take place opposite him. Take a ball and throw it at the moment you clench both stomach muscles and get up. If this goes well, we increase the tempo 

The upper leg combo consists of 3 exercises that can be done in sequence. Pairs are formed, and you do three exercises with your own pair.
