This is a great warmup drill for passers.

For this volleyball drill, you need 4 players, 1 tosser and 1 target.

1. The group of 4 should separate into 2 pairs.
2. The first pair stand next to each other (the other 2 lined up on the outside of the drill).
3. Slap the volleyball to signal the start of the drill.
4. The first pair shuffles back. Toss the volleyball just over their shoulders. The players pass every ball on their left. They must adjust their bodies to the right of the volleyball. In an emergency if the ball is on their right they can use their hands to pass.
5. The second group files in for their turn. Shuffling down the middle and running back to the 10-ft line on the outside.
6. Repeat for 20 tosses.

This drill should move very quickly. The players are trying to shuffle back fast enough and use their forearms on a higher tossed volleyball.

Make sure the players are keeping their bodies square to the tosser. That means hips, feet, shoulders all facing the tosser.

In order to get the volleyball to the target, the players must tilt their platforms and drop their right shoulder. On especially high balls, they can lift their left leg and hip to raise their platform and make solid contact with the volleyball.

How do you know if they are doing it right? They’ll look like peeing dogs. Male, of course.
