Baseline To Zone:

Three players stand on one side of the court with a receiver on the other.

One setter stands near to the net while another is one the baseline, and a spiker is on the wing. The receiver passes the ball to a setter who sets the ball up to the other setter and runs back to the baseline. The other setter now passes to the player on the wing and runs back to the baseline, while the spiker now hits a winner over the net before returning to the baseline.

Pass And Run:

Working in pairs, one player passes the ball and runs around their teammate before returning to their original position. The teammate then does the same.

Triangle Passing:

Three players make a triangle while another joins one of the corners with a ball.

The player passes the ball to another corner of the triangle before following the pass and standing behind the receiver, who continues the drill.

Play On Both Sides:

Players work in threes starting from a dig and each of them assigns a role: receiver, setter and spiker.

As soon as the receiver digs the ball, they run under the net to change the side of the court. Every player changes side when they hit the ball, with the spiker being the last player to move over.
