Purpose of drill
Most volleyball plays are “out of system”. It is important to practice out of system plays. This drill does that by simulating a passed ball that can not be handled normally by the setter or other player.
Keys to success
Toss to passer MUST be high
Pass to “x” MUST be high and on target
Pass to x must be done with back to net
Hit or tip over the net should be very deep into the opponents court
The drill runs quickly. As soon as player 2 passes to player 1, player 7 is ready to pass the toss. As soon as player 1 hits ball over the net player 7 should be tossing to player 6
Players should call for the ball
Players 1,5,and 6 should call to players 2, 7, and 8 to give them a passing target
Players 1, 5, and 6 all have balls. Player 1 tosses high ball to player 2. Player 2 first passes up to herself then, with her back to the net, passes high ball to spot “x” Player 1 hits or tips ball to deep court where it is shagged by players 3 and 4. As soon as the ball clears the net players 6 and 7 then 5 and 8 quickly repeat.
Player rotation is as follows, 1 goes to 8, 2 goes to 3, 3 goes to 4, 4 takes ball to 5. ROTATIONS 2 TO 3 AND 4 TO 5 ARE DONE OUTSIDE OF THE NET!
