Volleyball: Volley Warmp Up

One partner catches and throws or volleys the ball moving the other partner side-side so as to be able to volley using good footwork and rhythm to play the ball back to the partner.

Start the game by volleying the ball over the net to the player at the back of court. They overhand pass the ball to the player at the net who sets the ball up for the player to move forward and play the ball over the net with a Jump –volley, this is then repeated for a set number, length of time or can be made competitive.

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.

This drill can be measured in time or good repetitions.

Start with a throw or volley, then the player follows the ball and joins the queue of players at the other side of the net, this is then repeated for amount of time or number of repetitions (if an error is made you can make them start again, this helps to make them concentrate).

You can also add little extra bits i.e. touch the opposite end baseline before joining the queue or do two blocks at the net on your way through.
