Players start this drill on the sidelines.
The feeder overhand passes accurately and inaccurately to the worker. The worker is required to underhand pass the ball directly back to the feeder - regardless of how fast or slow they have to approach the pass!
Start off with high trajectory overhand passes to dig (easy) and then make it progressively more difficult by lowering the overhand passes.
This practice teaches players to prepare for a pass when finishing a running approach so that they are able to join their arms and pass. As player runs from sideline to the middle and back, this exercise improves their speed and reaction time.
FIVB's Strategic Vision 2032 is driving major changes: rule modernization, competition expansion, and coaching requirements that will reshape the sport. Here's what's coming.
Volleyball demands explosive power, quick reactions, and endurance for long matches. Sport-specific conditioning prepares athletes for the unique physical demands of the game while reducing injury risk.
Volleyball is the ultimate team sport - no player can dominate alone. Effective communication before, during, and after every play prevents confusion and creates a cohesive, confident team.
