Let’s get warmed up! And, work on ball control at the same time. Active Pepper is another progression in the “active” warmup. See Active Passing for the first progression.

The object is to keep the volleyball in the air. dig, set, hit. dig, set, hit. Each player must play the ball and follow it to the other side (running to right, of course).

Three players make ball control a must in this drill. If it’s too much for first-timers, add a fourth player for a little drill stability.
