Your players need to react quickly and move at speed to be in the right place before the ball hits the court. That's why in this session not only do we get your players' feet moving but we also focus on improving their underhand passing.
Players need to regularly practice getting into the "ready position" as quickly as possible so that they can dig the ball directly to a teammate,developing their balance and core strength.
Remember, the more stable you are, the more accurate dig or pass you are able to execute!
What's in the Session?
This plan will see your players working in paris to improve their passing technique, and finishes with a conditioned game to put training into practice.
With six simple video drills, this session will have your players moving quicker than ever before and taking advantage of the underhand pass.
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.
The modern pipe attack has evolved from a high middle-back set into a flat, fast weapon that arrives at quick tempo. Coaches at every level are now drilling it as a primary scoring option, forcing blockers into impossible decisions and unlocking four-hitter offences.
The back row attack adds a powerful offensive dimension that stretches the opposing block and creates scoring opportunities from unexpected positions. This guide covers the rules, approach footwork, setter-hitter timing, and progressive training methods for introducing back row attacks to developing teams.
