Practice plans that use these drills
Each one is a full practice you can run as written.
First practice: beginner
Your first session with players who are new to volleyball. Warm up, learn to move to the ball, pass, serve underhand, call the ball, and finish with a small game where everyone plays.
First practice: intermediate
For players who can already pass and serve. Most of the night is ball control and talking, with one butterfly and one hitting block.
First practice: advanced
A first session with experienced players. See what they do at speed, hit and dig in a butterfly, build a jump serve, and finish with six on six.
Rec league, mixed levels, one coach
For a rec or school team with beginners and club players in the same gym and one coach. Players feed each other in pairs and small groups, so nobody waits long, and every drill has a call.
