For all volleyball coaches to read, comment, and start conversation about all aspects of volleyball
Can you clarify what the rule is for year 5/6 with regard to how far up the kids can stand when they serve, as for some of our weaker servers I have suggested they stand as far up as they need. The opponents coach said the rule was the blue line..she said I needed to read the rules but the only rules I have is what you have sent us and the training night I attended before the season started and I understood that they could come up as far as they needed to make it go over.

Good question and one that I spoke to Gads about. The team is selected in October of the year before and spends most of Term 4 developing / reviewing skills. The goal for Term 1 is to spend more time developing game sense and team systems.
The issue to overcome is juniors joining the team after their season and the need to blend them in/ review their skills etc.
End result is during a 2 hour training, 1 hour conditioning and skills. Where the skills can be applied in a game like situation all the better. 2nd hour is all game like building from simple to complex.
Looking forward to other;s thoughts.

Another question that I thought I would raise is how are you dividing your training time between skills and game drills? and do you make a specific plan to do this and change it during the season?

I noticed at the Junior prelims that there were some teams that had difficulty with their back court posistions and therefore took balls that were going out or left open spaces in back court. Can anybody suggest some good drills to work on this?

Well done to who ever set this web page up, It was a good website before, But now it's an awesome site. Coaches in the BOP are well served with resources. I am now living in Hong Kong and I will certainly be passing this website on to other coaches in Hong Kong.
