Drills for Beginning Players
In previous pages you found out about volleyball drills for beginning
players by setting.
On this page you will learn how you can improve ball control and
hand-eye coordination by some forearm passing drills. We call these
following drills “juggling drills”.
Players can perform those in the beginning of practices as warm ups or
at home when getting an urge to improve the skills when there is no gym
time available.
Volleyball Drills
for Beginning Players - Examples
Example 1
You start standing up and performing forearm passes to yourself. Start
bending your knees and lower yourself to sitting position (while
bumping the ball). When you are in the sitting position you
are halfway. Next you need to raise yourself up again while passing the
ball. Repeat the cycle.
Example 2
Player performs
- Forearm passes to her/himself by trying to stay
on the same position
- Player can add degree of difficulty by
- Performing one-hand pass by bumping the ball
with right hand/left hand
- Turning around 180/360/540 degrees between
the
passes
- Touching the ground between each pass
Example 3
Player performs
- Forearm pass
- Forearm pass with right hand only
- Forearm pass
- Forearm pass with left hand only
- Forearm pass
- Keep repeating the cycle
Example 4
Player goes on the net, standing sideways to the net
- And bumps the ball above the net to another side
- Moves under the net, under the ball and hits
the ball back over the net back to other side
- Moves under the net to hit the ball back once
again
- Player keeps repeating the cycle
Example 5
Player goes next to the wall, standing around 6-10 feet away from the
wall. Bump the ball into the wall. Bump the bouncing ball
straight up. Bump the ball back to the wall. Repeat the cycle.
Same, but player focuses on passing the ball from the left or right
side of the body, instead of keeping the ball in front the
body. It is essential for players to learn to pass the ball
from the sides also.
Example 6
Player goes next to the wall, standing 5-8 feet (couple of meters) away
from the wall. Pass extremely low ball, about height of the knee, to
the wall and keep repeating that extremely low pass. Play with the
ball; keep repeating passes by changing the position of the ball – to
the right or left side of your body. Learn to pass all around
your body.
Example 7
Practice bump setting by setting extremely
high ball towards sealing trying to stay in the same
position. Test how high up you can go.
This volleyball passing drill is an excellent way to learn to keep your
eyes the ball when hitting it and learning the correct placement of the
ball when passing it.
If you mishit the ball even a little, you’ll be chasing the ball – try
to stay in the same position. This drill is an excellent way
to teach players to bump set the ball – after doing the drill bump
setting feels very easy. This drills is difficult enough even for the
top level volleyball players.
