Underhand Serving:

A fun and simple way to introduce the serve.

Using the underhand serve players pass the ball over the net one another.

There should be no loose balls here, players should focus on accuracy as they aim to get the ball up and over.

Once again players should be stepping forwards with the opposite leg to the hand that you serve with.

2 Warm Up

Volley:

One partner catches and throws or volleys the ball moving the other partner side-side so as to be able to volley using good footwork and rhythm to play the ball back to the partner.

Volley and Follow:

Start with a throw or volley, then the player follows the ball and joins the queue of players at the other side of the net, this is then repeated for amount of time or number of repetitions (if an error is made you can make them start again, this helps to make them concentrate).

You can also add little extra bits i.e. touch the opposite end baseline before joining the queue or do two blocks at the net on your way through.
