HOME Volleyball Drills 2 Warm Up

Volleyball: Ball Slalom

I can't get enough of Sportplan. It's given me back the enthusiasm...

Cornel

DESCRIPTION

Place a few balls on the baseline and spread them out. Players move in and out between the balls, moving as if they were in defence. Make sure players avoid contact with the balls.

COACHING POINTS

This exercise masters footwork skills and the ability to change position quickly in defence.

PROGRESSION

If you want players to work harder, you can add more balls so that they are turning quicker, or alternatively, have less balls so that players take short steps and control balance.

Speedy Side Steps - Pairs Race:

Players then place the ball on the floor and sidestep back to their side to start again.

4 Player Passing Rotation:

Working in 4's with the final player throwing the ball back to the feeder under the net.

Once the drill starts the setter passes the ball to a target player at the net.

The net player then sets the ball for the wide player who receives it and then returns the ball ready for the drill to start again.
