If time runs out, winner is team with most points Teams can play with as few as 5 players. If less than 5 players after 10 minutes from scheduled match start, the 3 games are forfeit; Opposing team should lend players and play match for fun. Vienna Youth Volleyball 19

25 Safety Considerations No water bottles allowed on playing floor injury hazard Remove any other potential hazards from the playing area Encourage players to wear knee pads and court shoes (no running shoes) Do not leave the gym area until all your players have been picked up Keep handy a printed team roster that includes parent phone numbers in case of emergency Additional safety considerations in the Building Director literature Vienna Youth Volleyball 25

At each match, work with the other coach to identify 2 parent volunteers to judge lines and 1 parent volunteer to flip scores Go easy on referees just HS kids helping out or call Chuck Pruitt if you have any questions, comments or concerns Vienna Youth Volleyball 26

27 Coaching Handout

28 Quick Coaching Tips House teams should focus on fundamental ball control skills: serve, bump, set, hit Skills clinics and practices should reinforce these skills Uses drills that encourage as many player touches as possible Before game play begins, explain to parents that the focus is on ball control using multiple touches, not winning as many points as possible through 1 touch Ping-pong Vienna Youth Volleyball 28

T Ball Movement Player Movement P Variations: -Can vary height of toss to generate overhead passes or forearm passes. -Serve to passer rather -IF passing scores are good, add a hitter who catches ball and bounces Tosser -If control a problem use only 2 tossers on same side -Use only 2 tossers and add a 2 nd passer (short) Vienna Youth Volleyball and alternate tosses. 32 T

33 R=Shagger T=Tosser S=Setter P=Passer R Path of Player Path of Ball T P =Cart S1S2 P1 P2 P Inside Outside Drill T Objective: To strengthen movement and passing Directions: Note this drill is designed for using 2 tossers and passers simultaneously to increase frequency of touches. Passers touch hands at middle of court and shuffle to outside, maintaing good medium position. Tosser tosses ball to outside edge of court. Passers pass ball to setter, dropping inside shoulder to ensure platform is to target. Setter catches ball in setting position squared to X (or hitter if hitter added) and puts ball in cart. Passers go back and touch hands Repeat 5x and rotate, P to S, S to Shagger (Sh), Sh to Passing line. Variations More basic: Passer lets ball go between legs and a shagger behind passer retrieves ball and bounces to setter. More difficult: Increase distance fro passer and force passers R to run through the ball Passer catches ball with arms locked and tosses to Setter Setter catches ball in FA pass or OH pass position Have players move to opposite line after shagging so they get experience passing from both sides of court Multi-skill: Add hitter and setter sets to hitter. Coach initiated or player initiated. If a large team add a ball handler to take ball from cart and Vienna Youth hand Volleyball to tosser 33
