Two players stand on one side of the net attacking, while one player is on the other side and will be the blocker.
On the attacking side, a player overhand passes the ball to a team mate who sets it back to him to spike. The blocker jumps from a settled spot and blocks the attacked ball.
Have players keep hands high and legs a little bent before blocking. Hands should be put on the other side over the net during block attempt.
Coaches spend hours correcting arms in serve receive when the real fault is almost always the feet. Fix the movement and the platform fixes itself.
Most teams win the dig and then hand the point straight back with a slow, predictable transition swing. The best 2026 sides treat the moment after the dig as their sharpest scoring chance, feeding the middle in transition and running first-tempo attacks off a defensive ball.
When the first pass breaks down, most teams collapse into a high ball straight into the opposing block. The best 2026 sides are building structured out-of-system offences that turn broken plays into scoring chances using libero sets, left-side options and disciplined hitter routes.
