DESCRIPTION

One player stands in Zone 6, with another in zone 3 and one in zone 2.

Players set the ball consecutively clockwise, with the player in Zone 3 setting the ball backwards.

COACHING POINTS

In this exercise a setter masters backwards setting to antenna where his/her teammate stands.

To keep passing efficiently, a setter should look behind and watch its path after the ball loses contact with their hands.

PROGRESSION

Add a fourth player in Zone 4, and the setter in Zone 3 passes to them but alternates between backwards and forwards passing.

A player from the outside sets to the middle player before receiving the ball back. The middle player now turns 180 degrees and the player with the ball passes to the players at the other side of the court.

Players on the outside set the ball once to the middle and then to the other side.

Shuttle Sprint:

Players stand in a line on the sideline, with balls set up on the line opposite.

On the coach's whistle, the player run towards the balls, pick them up and bring them back to the player's starting spot, before running to the other sideline.

From here, they repeat the drill, running to the ball, picking it up and bringing it back with them.
