Volleyball: Set And Spike

Thanks to Sportplan and their coaching tips, I can now coach with...

Horatius, Cricket Coach

DESCRIPTION

The spiker begins by setting the ball to the setter, who spikes the ball in return. The spiker now digs the ball in the air to the setter, who this time does set the ball up for the spiker to attack and hit over the net.

COACHING POINTS

In this drill, both the attacker and setter train ball control whilst spiking.

PROGRESSION

Ask players to spike over the net hitting targets (e.g. sideline, baseline, attack line).

Spiking for Beginners

Learning to spike - Teach your players the perfect technique to spike, all the way from approach, to jump, to hit.

OFTEN USED WITH...

Spiking Throw:

Get players into pairs and have them standing across from each other on the court, and with a ball between them. The player with the ball jumps and baseball passes the ball to their team mate, throwing it into the floor so that it bounces high.

Approach, Jump And Clap:

Players approach and jump and imitate a spike by holding the non-hitting hand up and hitting it as it it were a ball.

Approach And Jump:

Players stand on the attack line facing the net. If the player is right handed, they start with a left leg step, followed by two quick right-left steps and then jump.
