If regular warm-up drills are getting boring and repetitious for your team, try out this drill from Kirsten Bernthal-Booth, head coach at Creighton University. Players will get the opportunity to work on a variety of volleyball skills with the end goal being to hit the antenna at the end of every “hole”.

Drill Summary: Coach Bernthal-Booth has her team do four “holes” for this warm-up drill. Two holes are shown in this video. Players need to pair up to execute this drill. For the first hole, players pepper down the sideline toward the antenna from the end line, and they are required to make a swing on every third contact. To complete the hole, players need to pepper over the net and finish by swinging the ball into the antenna. If they miss the antenna, they have to start over. For hole two, one partner swings from the end line into the net, and their partner has two contacts off the net to set it to their teammate, who must finish the hole by setting the ball into the antenna.

Keys to the Drill:

1) Teamwork.
2) Accuracy.
3) Communication.
4) Finish by hitting the antenna.
