This week's session aims to test your players - getting them dashing and darting around the court - working on their plyometric power and anaerobic stamina!
Although it's great if your players are physically able to run a marathon it's not that important for volleyball - that's because volleyball requires relatively short bursts of power and speed (although stamina does of course help).
To get your players working on their fitness systems we start this session with some fun warm up games. Once everybody's warmed up we get to work on your players' plyometric strength, before finishing with a challenging Pyramid Running drill followed by some basic ball skill drills - to find out how your players perform when tired!
New hitters rarely miss because of their arm. They miss because of their feet. Build a reliable approach, then time it with your setter.
When your hitter gets stuffed, five teammates standing and watching is how you lose the point. Good attack coverage turns a blocked ball into a second swing.
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.
