ORGANISATION:
Divide the volleyball court into 3 parts with 8 players per area and 2 teams of 4.
TASK:
Start the game/rally with an underhand serve where the ball hits the ground. If too close to the net, take 2 steps back. Pass the ball over the net in one go with:
- 2 outsrectched arms
- 1 overhand
- 1 underhand
For each team of 4, the rules are:
If you throw the ball across the net, everyone rotates clockwise. If a player drops the ball/throws the ball out of play or into the net, they leave the court. When the ball is caught in the next rally three times in a row the player returns. When the court is empty the other team gets a point.
