Main Activity
Group Introduction
With group seated
• Remind class of the rules, no kicking balls or touching the net
• Ask them how they serve, volley and play catch throw
The Volley At Angles OB2
Key points
• The ball goes the direction the body faces.
• One foot points to where the ball comes from, the other points to where you want the ball to go to.
• Hand action is the same as a straight volley.
• Turn body as ball is being played
• Finish the way you want the ball to go
Exercise 1) Turn and Play
In 3's with 1 ball, 1 feeder, 1 volleyer, 1 catcher,
In a triangle standing 2-3m from each other. One person feeds the ball to the volleyer who volleys the ball to the catcher, This continues around in a circle, so each person carries out each roll. Demo this in slow motion, catch the ball, turn and throw the ball after your facing the target.
10 volleys each then change direction
Key Points
• Foot positioning
• Turning at same time as ball
• Body faces target
Key Phases
Turn as you volley
Exercise 2) Keepy Uppy
In 3's with 1 ball
In a triangle standing 2-3m from each other. Volley the ball to each other trying to keep the ball up for as long as possible, the ball can go in either direction. A target of 10 volleys without an error is realistic.
Key Pointers
• Watch for people catching and throwing instead of volleying
• Volley up not flat to give team mates a chance.
Key Phases
The higher the volley the easier it is for your partners
Exercise 3) 2v2 Catch Throw OB3
Mark out enough courts for 2v2.
Demonstrate how to play catch throw again as some children will need reminding. Remember to use "Catch, Catch, Throw"
After 5 mins of play introduce some new rules and new opponents.
• Players can only hold onto the ball for 3 seconds
• Who ever wins the point servers next
Ask if there are any questions.
Then ask one team in a corner to stay where they are, ask every team to rotate around one court position to their left.
Every 5 minutes or so, rotate the teams around, remember to leave the same team where they are or teams will play the same teams.
