Basic Relay Warm-Ups

A ball handling volleyball drill.

Split your team into relay teams, 2-4 players per team. Have them line up in single-file lines on the volleyball endline, facing the net. Each team has one ball. Complete the following sequence in a relay fashion: 1) set to yourself while walking/shuffling forward to net, at net duck under and continue while walking/shuffling BACKWARDS to opposite endline, at endline catch ball and sprint back (HANDING ball to next player in line); repeat the "relay" with the remaining skills: 2) pass to self, 3) alternate pass to self/set to self, 4) withOUT ball, 2 side shuffle steps and blocking jump into air (switch direction you are facing after you get to net), 5) withOUT ball, approach jumps (continue all the way to endline, no switch at net). REMIND players that the only part of the relay that is a RACE is the sprint back to line, they should be otherwise working on CONTROL.
