Pointers: The
group volley exchange drill can be performed using the
entire team.
Players work in an area approx 20 yards x 20 yards.
Start with one ball. The player with the ball volleys
into the air. The ball is allowed to bounce once before the next player
volleys it into the air.
The idea is to keep the ball and players moving around
the grid. Players should
focus on
"quick feet"
and being light on their toes. Players should be constantly alert
and communicating with each other.
Start by using 1 ball, then add additional balls to
increase the tempo of the practice.
