OFTEN USED WITH...

Bump:

Throw the ball in the air, let it bounce then bend your legs. Put your arms out in front and bump the ball up using mainly leg movement not arm swing.

Keep it going, changing which arm you bump the ball with (try and use good rhythm and mainly legs).

MVW:READY TO REBOUND

4 Player Passing Rotation:

Working in 4's with the final player throwing the ball back to the feeder under the net.

Once the drill starts the setter passes the ball to a target player at the net.

The net player then sets the ball for the wide player who receives it and then returns the ball ready for the drill to start again.

This drill can be measured in time or good repetitions.

Keep it going, changing which arm you bump the ball with (try and use good rhythm and mainly legs).

Attacking Jump-Volley:

The person on the side of the mats feeds the ball to the two players opposite who communicate and pass the ball to the net for the ball to be set up for an attacking jump-volley to the mat that has not been occupied by the feeder.

This means that the attacking player needs to work on creating a good field of vision and observe where the feeder has moved to.
