Volleyball: Digging - up and over continuous rally

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

DESCRIPTION

Players stand in two lines on either side of the net.

The first player throws the ball up in the air to themselves and digs the ball over the net to the player on the other side.

Following the ball at all times the other player must position themselves in such a way that they are able to first-time dig the ball over the other side of the net.

After players have made their pass they should then run to the left, under the net, to rejoin the back of the queue on the other side.

Defensive Drill:

3 players stand in a line just off court. Two feeders at the net set the rhythm for the defenders to move using appropriate footwork and then play defence. The defender then moves back off the court and goes the other way and this repeats for either a set time or number of good contacts.
