Spiking is an excellent skill to use in volleyball, as it is often where a team will score most of their points.
Although it is difficult to master, it's far from impossible, and that's what this plan aims to teach your players. If a player can learn the proper technique of attacking the ball with a spike, all the way from the approach to the contact, they will soon be able to win points on a regular basis.
What's in the Session?
Packed with 9 excellent video drills perfect for teaching the spike and improving a player's power. We start with warm-ups to build the power in your players' arms and legs before gradually introducing the ball, followed by the correct technique for the spike. We have a number of fun drills that work on the approach, before moving on to teach the hit, and we then put this all together, so that your players know exactly what they're doing, from approach to hit!
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.
