Start at the end of the ladder with your feet together. Stride jump and put your arms out to the side, then jump with both feet back in to the 1st hole with your arms going to your side.
The next time put your arms out to the front. Repeat this all the way down the ladder. When your feet are together, your arms are by your side. When your feet are apart your arms are straight out to your side or straight out in front at shoulder height. You alternate side and front all the way down the ladder.
When your hitter gets stuffed, five teammates standing and watching is how you lose the point. Good attack coverage turns a blocked ball into a second swing.
Coaches spend hours correcting arms in serve receive when the real fault is almost always the feet. Fix the movement and the platform fixes itself.
Most teams win the dig and then hand the point straight back with a slow, predictable transition swing. The best 2026 sides treat the moment after the dig as their sharpest scoring chance, feeding the middle in transition and running first-tempo attacks off a defensive ball.
