Doubleblocking the Middle

A volleyball blocking practice drill.

Kind of a build on the “Blocking Footwork” drill, but this includes footwork and partner blocking. Have a player start in each of the three hitting/blocking positions along the net (1, 2 & 3 in diagram above). Player 1 jumps to block in the left front position and then uses blocking footwork to move to middle front where she will double block with Player 2. Player 2 then uses blocking footwork to move to right front where she’ll double block with Player 3. Player 3 then “peels off” and gets in at the end of the line (Xs). The next player in line (after Player 1) should start the process again and jump for the block in left front when Player 1 and Player 2 are double-blocking in the middle.
