• The ball will be kept in play diagonally over the net.
• There will be 3 x replays, pass/setup/attack.
• Every time the team plays the ball over the net, they turn a spot.

• The game is slowly built up from just playing over and underhands to targeted attack from jump.

1. overhand at the net and underhand in the backfield
2. attack from position
3. attack from jump, aimed/strike the person (through).
4. The team must keep the ball in play for 30 or 60 seconds. (The team must keep the ball in play for 30 or 60 seconds.) When the ball falls to the ground the time starts over. Set a maximum time of 5 minutes, for example, if you are not successful. You can extend the time each time you do the exercise by 10 seconds and thus keep the players trainer concentrated for longer and longer on passing the ball neatly.

Note: Make sure that the players do not pass the ball over the net in a wide arc, but that they attack in a targeted manner.

If you have more than 8 players, you can also place players at the right back and play over the whole field.
