Volleyball: Standing Spike Into The Net

Description

Standing on the attack line in pairs, one player underhand throws the ball high, and the other swings their hand back and spikes the ball into the net.

Coaching points

Setter must throw the ball high enough so the spiker could prepare (backswing, rotate torso, step forward with hand-opposite leg) and hit the ball at the highest point over their forehead.

Progression

After a few attempts have players jump prior to attack.
