Any drills for volleyball?

What are good volleyball drills for 12 & under?

  • I'm coaching a 12 & under team for volleyball and I need some drills. I want drills that will be fun for them and not boring. Any type of drills will be good. Thanks (:

  • Answer:

    for serving: "Blob" its a serving game where you have two teams on either side of the court and they just start to serve. if one person misses, then they have to lay down on the other side and can only go back if their team is able to hit them when serving. if another person misses the serve, then they have to go to the other side and attach themselves to another player creating a "blob". the first team with all the players in the blob loses. for setting, just play a game three on three and have it so every touch is a set. set, set, set. for hitting, here's a drill to help them get the hang of snapping the wrist. start at the 10-foot line. have the player toss themselves a ball and (like a top-spin jump serve) do their approach and have them hit it. it'll teach them to snap their wrist so the ball goes down. if they don't snap their wrist, the ball probably won't land in. for serve receive, do the "perfect pass drill" have four people on the court at a time: 3 back row and 1 target. coach will serve, and then when the player passes, rate the pass as a 0, 1, 2, or 3. after 100 serves, calculate their average. it'll be beneficial for them to know how well they did statistically. overall: a really fun drill is "doghouse" have two teams, five on at a time (3 back row, a setter and an outside hitter). number one rule: the setter can't set to the outside hitter. so the coach tosses the ball in, and the team will play it out until someone gets a kill or an error. whoever has the error has to go into the "doghouse" which is the outside hitter, which causes everyone to rotate: hitter goes to setter, and the setter fills in the empty spot. meanwhile, the coach will give out individual points. the player can get points for getting a kill of having a good dig. the setter can get points from a setter dump. the first to 10 (or however many points you set) wins. a rule that my coach had was you had to say the number of points you had aloud as you received them and "uno" at the second to last point. for example: if the game was to 5, when i got 4 points i had to yell "Uno!". if another player says uno before me, I get deducted one point and have to go back to three. these are all the fun drills that I've done as a player and I've found them all to be pretty fun.

A good drill would be All Around The World, where a person goes and sits in zone 1 on the opposite side of the court and you must serve to that zone and they have to catch it. If they catch it, the person who served goes and sits in zone two and the other girl goes back in line on the other side. Keep going until you reach zone 6, and the team that gets there first has won. Also, any passing drills are key for younger age groups. Just tossing a ball and having them pass into a set of cones or something of that sort would be good.. Hope that helps!(:
