This is an introductory session to volleyball training. The session is designed to go through the basic skills required in a game of volleyball. It is particularly aimed at those clubs coming back from the summer who haven't done any formal training for a couple of months, or beginners starting at a volleyball club.
Most of the sessions contain 6 drills, of which two are warm-up drills. This should complete a session allowing you to focus on the skill involved. Should you wish to pad the session, pick a drill that matches the subject from the drills section, or play games.
The drills do not include general warm-up (running, stretching, etc) and do not include the warm-down. There has been recent articles stating that these are not necessary, but while the body may be capable of going straight into sport, the recovery afterwards can take longer and as such I would endorse including both warm up and down in your sessions.
As a disclaimer, these sessions are designed to assist those who coach social and local volleyball clubs, not teams that play at national level.
Note on Flash: The drills can be viewed in Flash. If you do not have this installed, go to www.adobe.com. If you find the 'Play Drill' control stutters, click on 'Play Drill' letters, move mouse away from letters, then release.
As always, your feedback is useful, if you wish to comment on the sessions/drills, then send an email to coach@thevolleyball.net
