DESCRIPTION

b. SET UP

  • Have the players form a line at the end of the court
  • The first player in line starts by getting down on their stomach
  • Coach is in middle of court, with feeder

c. RUN THE DRILL

  • On the coaches signal (whistle or callout), the player gets up quickly off the ground
  • Coach tosses a ball into the front row in some position
  • The player gets into passing position and makes a pass to a set target player
  • While first player is making set, the next player in line gets down on their stomach to await the whistle / call
  • Run through the line for 5 minute intervals, 1 minute rest in between, for 5 cycles

COACHING POINTS

d. COACHING POINTS

  • Put emphasis on quickness getting up, locating the ball in the air, and setting up under ball to make set

e. VARIATIONS
