Volleyball: Lay and Set

Every good spike is backed by a good set. Coach your players accuracy and consistency in this session packed with video drills!

Players start by lying on their back on the baseline. When the coach whistles, they quickly get up and overhand pass the ball to themselves while moving forwards and backwards from the net.

This drill can be performed in pairs, or players can perform it individually against a wall.

Players set the ball either to their partner or against the wall, and alternates between setting while standing on their feet, and setting with a jump.

3 balls in play, teams of 4 in each half of the court.

Each court has 1 ball which they must pass around constantly, with all players participating.

At the same time, each team attempts to pass another ball back and forth between the teams, with the aim of getting the ball to land on the opposition's side of the court.

1. The drill starts with a player from each side serving a ball. They then go and sit down where their serve landed - assuming it went in (if not they join the back of the line and will have to serve again in a minute).
   
   
2. The rest of the players then start serving, trying to serve to their teammate on the other side of the net. If successful and their team-mate catches the ball, they go join them.
   
   
3. The drill ends when one team has all of their players reach the other side.
