Chase the Ball

A volleyball practice drill.

Players (Xs) line up in two single file lines, side by side one another in left front near the net. Coach (C) slaps the ball or says “go” and the first player in each line run out into the court as the coach tosses a high ball deep into the court. The 1st player who reaches the ball passes it up so that the 2nd player can pass the ball either back to the coach or over the net. Set a goal of x-number of successful passes back to the coach or over the net. We do this over the net and usually try to have the contact be a downball rather than a pass over. It’s a great drill for working on chasing after an errant first pass and it also works on communication between players.
