Players start this drill on the back line in a press-up position looking at the coach.
When the coach self feeds the ball players should get up to their feet and move forward to pass the ball back to the coach before it bounces.
After passing the ball back players should run around the cones on the outside of the court and then join the back of the line.
Not only is this drill good for your players' fitness but it's also good for getting players to practice getting back to their feet quickly in order to reach the ball in time and keep the point alive.
New hitters rarely miss because of their arm. They miss because of their feet. Build a reliable approach, then time it with your setter.
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.
