I can't get enough of Sportplan. It's given me back the enthusiasm...

DESCRIPTION

Players run along the sideline as far as the attack line where they performs squat-jumps followed by three quick jumps. The drill starts and ends with runs that involve arm swinging.

COACHING POINTS

Have players jump with arms extended as high as they are prepared to block.

This exercise allows players to develop explosive power of lower limbs and shorten reaction time when blocking which is very important for blockers.

Ball Slalom:

Place a few balls on the baseline and spread them out. Players move in and out between the balls, moving as if they were in defence. Make sure players avoid contact with the balls.

Balance and power:

In pairs with one ball, both players face each other in the squat position.

The players then have to push the ball at head height with two hands. Heels should not stay in contact with the floor.

On the coach's signal the players should start to push harder and jump in squat position with the aim of making their opponent lose balance.

The one to stay balanced three times wins
