Blocking is the main skill a defence can use against an attacking team, and although it looks simple, there is far more to it than simply jumping and throwing your hands up.
Blocking is one of the least-taught skills in volleyball despite being one of the most important. The aim of this session is to help your blockers master their movement along the net, while also ensuring they are correctly positioning themselves when blocking.
What's in the Session?
Starting with a number of warm ups that work on the muscles needed to block effectively, we then move on to working in pairs and individually to improve blocking technique. Packed with 9 video drills, this is a session your blockers can't afford to miss out on!
New hitters rarely miss because of their arm. They miss because of their feet. Build a reliable approach, then time it with your setter.
When your hitter gets stuffed, five teammates standing and watching is how you lose the point. Good attack coverage turns a blocked ball into a second swing.
Coaches spend hours correcting arms in serve receive when the real fault is almost always the feet. Fix the movement and the platform fixes itself.
