Volleyball 6v6 Team Drill Tier Drill
In this 6 person drill, guided by former Olympic National Coach Terry Liskevych, players focus on serve-receive through all rotations. The primary objective is to achieve error free transitions through each of the six rotations, all demanding a set number of perfect repetitions to complete the drill successfully.
Drill Mechanics: The drill begins with a team of six arranged in their first rotation on one side of the court. Starting with a serve receive ball, players are challenged to execute two consecutive perfect plays with no opposing team on the other side. Upon achieving this, the team transitions to the next rotation, continuing the sequence. The next progression would be to get a serve receive ball, free ball, and a down ball in each rotation, remaining the same expectation of flawless side out and transition plays.
Focus on Flawless Repetition: A key aspect of the drill is the emphasis on consecutive successes. Liskevych pushes the team to achieve consecutive error-free plays in all rotations. This process reinforces the team’s ability to perform consistently across the different rotations. The practice mirrors in-match situations, transitioning from serve receive to free balls, and then to downballs, all while maintaining a high level of consistency.

Why do balls hit the ground Disbelief and miscommunication
Переглядів 4,7 тис.7 місяців тому
Club coach Craig Moore talks about why so many balls hit the ground when there are six players covering a small court: Disbelief that it's possible and hesitation because you don't think it's your ball to dig.

This dynamic warmup drill, introduced by club and high school coach Tod Mattox, gives players an active, game-like activity that focuses on middle transition. Two teams play each other in 6 vs. 6.

Play begins when the coach enters a ball from the sideline to the te...

Winning the joust in volleyball 1
Переглядів 2,8 тис.7 місяців тому
When the ball is tight to the net, setters often have to contend with an opposing blocker. In these situations, the joust is a great shot for them to have in their toolbox. The golden rule of the joust, as Jed Stotsenberg from Wave Volleyball points out here, is: “The player who pushes last wins.” This is usually the way it plays out, even if the offensive player is shorter than the blocker. Pu...
A better way to track serving statistics

The number one mistake that Coach Nabil Mardini sees in gyms centers around how serving stats are recorded. The usual approach is to record aces vs. errors, but this is not always a good indicator of winning.

This 3 v 3 drill, introduced by Tod Mattox, focuses on controlled digging and back-row swings. The drill begins with a player or coach “bowling” the ball over the net to the other team. Only two contacts are allowed, and since the focus is back-row hits, the digger must get the ball up high, around the 10-foot line, so the hitter has time to approach and jump hard.

    As a middle, I sometimes have trouble keeping up with a good and fast sets by the opponent. This type of 1 legged jump into block looks way faster than planting both feet on the floor before jumping up. Thanks for the tips, I will definitely try this!

    For right side block, I'm not sure about the player spinning though. Turn to face the court as you transition back towards the attack line makes sense but spinning removes the potential to keep your focal vision on a specific target (like the ball). I'd like to hear if there's a benefit to rotating the body counter-clockwise, 360 degrees....

    When i see coaches today teaching to follow through on the side of your hitting arm, i want to scream NO. The only time that should happen is when you perform a cut shot away. That causes so much damage on the rotator cuff, it’s completely unnatural, anti-physics. I’m glad they covered that in this video.

  • @JacopoBasanisi
    @JacopoBasanisi 7 місяців тому

    "As a beach coach", that's the bias. Beach volley rules make the hits easy to dig, no way a ball will take 3 seconds to drop in an indoor court. Tips are effective because you often have to cover for a VERY fast spike, and as a second choice you cover for the tip. When you manage to stay in system, with the block covering some angles, someone will take care easily of the tips. Of course, having 6 opponents and not only 2, most of the time you have to improvise your positioning. I understand the point of the coach, which is stay vigilant and move your body, but he's oversimplifying the cause

    • @konradpiotrowski9549
      @konradpiotrowski9549 7 місяців тому

      Simplifying is exactly the goal of this, if you complicate the fact that the ball was going down, but I was ready for something different, someone else should have taken it then you add up to you hesitation. We all know that reality is different, but making people believe is sometimes even more important. That's how teams win matches that they should have lost already ;)

    • @RH-qd2nm
      @RH-qd2nm 7 місяців тому

      If a ball is tipped over the height of the block and a defender is not able to take two steps to pursue it, they read it late or reacted too slowly. Being too committed to defending hard driven balls results in the slow to react scenario. Believe the play is possible> learn to read the attacker> improve reaction time > better defender. Same process indoors or outdoors.

    • @cmoore1550
      @cmoore1550 7 місяців тому

      Any ball with the same peak height will take the same time to hit the ground regardless of the surface you are playing on. Gravity acts in the Y direction so X distance doesn't matter (google myth buster bullet experiment). So any ball that is tipped, rolled, poked (no downward force applied) from 9ft, to a peak of 12ft will hit the ground at the same time. It's definitely an oversimplification, but that's the whole point (don't think just go).

  • @matteilers8416
    @matteilers8416 7 місяців тому

    The Coach wanted them to "look" but if you watch the hitters, they never looked outside of maybe before they took off. They then watched the ball the entire time, hit it and the coach said "yes, yes, yes"....so I am not sure I am following what the point of this drill was??

    • @matthewmorales1734
      @matthewmorales1734 6 місяців тому

      The purpose is good he just needs to watch them better. Training them to hit to the defenders first is kind of odd since it’s 2 and the hitter can get lucky. Where as having them avoid the defense means they’re actually seeing the court.

    And yet they do the same thing with everything else: Hitters: kills and errors only. Setters: Assists and errors only. Blockers: blocks and errors only. Defenders: digs and errors only. Serve receive is the only place people tend the stat how good their "non-errors" are.

    I made a formula. Like a qb rating in football. For the record I’m a lower division high school boys coach. Here’s the formula (Ace x 5 + out of system x 4 + in system x 3) / (total serve# x 5) A reasonable goal for a team is 0.6-0.7 Simple to calculate quickly, but has more emphasis on getting serves in than aces.

    Good stuff. My pet peeve is middles that decide their approach point is 3 ft behind the 3m line, directly in the middle of the court. They become sort of a roadblock. I like the emphasis on approaching at an angle.

  • @ericli126
    @ericli126 8 місяців тому

    Middle hitters think that the further you're away from the net, the higher you'll jump, and harder you'll hit. The gist to middle hitters (quick set A, B) is pace. Starting on or in front of the 3m line makes a lot of sense. Good video.

    How is this hybrid system different than a traditional 5-1, where the so-called "tall setter" is indeed the offside hitter who can set well and can hit + block at the same time? Or the traditional 6-2 even, where the back row setter sets? And when the "short setter" rotates to the front row, do we sub him/her with another "tall setter"? Meaning we need two sets of "tall-short setters"? Not very clear to me how it works. Appreciate if anyone can shed some light.
