A short overview of the types of skills being developed at a typical day of practice!
The foundation of beach volleyball lies in effective passing. We focus on drills that enhance forearm pass techniques, including platform consistency, passing angles, and footwork to ensure players can accurately direct the ball to their teammate under any circumstances.
Mastering both power serves and strategic placement serves is crucial. We emphasize consistent practice on serving because it's the only skill in volleyball where you have complete control over the ball. Our drills aim to improve accuracy, power, and the ability to read the opposing team's formation to serve strategically.
Setting is pivotal in beach volleyball as it sets up offensive opportunities. Our practices include exercises for hand positioning, touch, and timing to ensure sets are precise and adaptable to various attacking strategies. We also incorporate drills for bump setting, given its importance in beach volleyball when the ball is difficult to handle with hand sets.
We work on various attacking skills, including spike approach techniques, shot variety (such as cut shots, pokeys, and rolls), and hitting with power and accuracy. Recognizing the importance of adaptability in beach volleyball, our drills also focus on developing players’ ability to read the opposing defense and make smart attacking decisions.
