As a coach, you will know that volleyball is far more than just serves and spikes. It is an intense sport that requires supreme fitness, and this week?s session is designed to work your players extremely hard to help increase both their playing ability and fitness.
Volleyball is one of the toughest sports to perform fitness training for as there are so many parts of the game that need to be worked on. That?s why we?ve crammed them all into one super session that will get your players fitter than ever before!
What's in the Session?
Training requires working on the muscles and cardiovascular system for skills that are used in the sport, such as blocking and diving. The following session covers all aspects of fitness training, from leg exercises to help those explosive jumps to speed and stamina training in the form of suicides, which will work your team to their limit.
Plyometrics are also covered to help with those explosive jumps that are so crucial in volleyball, while strength and conditioning is also covered, to give your players a full body workout.
Take a look at this session and get your players working harder than ever before!
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.
