Volleyball: Accurate Digging

Description

Players work in pairs with a ball between them. The player starting with the ball spikes it to their partner who needs to get down and did the ball back to the spiker, who should easily be able to catch it. The receiving is trying to pass as accurately as possible.

Coaching points

This drill is similar to a match situation in that the receiver has to react to prepare and the dig the ball directly back to the spiker.

Ensure the player spiking keeps changing the ball velocity and direction to make the drill more of a challenge for the digger.
