Bounce and Move:

One of the partners has the ball and holds it out away from their body in front of their belly button. The player then turns and drops the ball and the partner has to move and catch the ball before it bounces twice and they repeat (no dummy moves and the ball must land twice in the same place).

As they get better at the game, the player catching the ball must be facing their partner when they catch the ball and the ball must be caught with their hands just in front of and between their knees.

The catcher then must turn and drop the ball within 1 or 2 seconds. You play this game for points or time.

Throw and Catch:

Throw the ball in the air using two hands, move to where the ball is coming down, lay down on the floor and catch the ball.

When you have caught the ball, throw it up in the air, get up and catch it (when laying down be aware as to not bang head on the floor).

Digging Game:

Start the game with equal or as near as possible teams. Serve an easy underarm serve to start the game then using only digs try and score points against the opposition.

One player plays the ball then goes off court to the back and queues until their turn again. Play the game to set number of points. Players must go for the ball, it's about effort, control and tactics.
