Digging and spiking are two skills that your players will use more than any other during a game, which is why it's so important that they are able to master them.
As well as being able to dig and spike, your players also need to know to be in the correct position when receiving the ball. That's why this session is perfect for teaching your players the correct technique, footwork and positioning!
What's in the session?
Packed with excellent video drills, we begin with fun warm up drills that require your players to think quickly and get the ball moving. We then get your players digging the ball quickly and accurately in challenging drills, before putting this all together in match-like situation.
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.
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.
