  1. here are some drills for your serve....

    While serving is one of the most important skills in volleyball, drills that practice and improve your players’ serving skills are often left until the end of the practice. But when you think of it in terms that serving is the only time when a player has complete control over the ball, you’ll think twice before shoving serving practice until the last minutes of your practice.

    The aspect of serving that most players have trouble with is accuracy. Therefore try including some drills that highlight serving accuracy at your next volleyball practice, and watch the points rake in at your next game as your players learn to serve with pin-point accuracy to the holes in the other team’s defense.

    When showing these middle school volleyball drills to your team, make sure to run them at half speed first to give players a chance to practice the movements before implementing them in the drill. Also encourage players to ask questions on anything they are unsure of before proceeding to avoid injury and embarrassment.

    To set up this serving drill, place a chair on either side of the net in Area 1. Divide your team into 2 groups that stand on either side of the net. One player from each group sits in the opposing team’s chair, opposite from their team mates. The play begins as the first player from each team attempts to serve the ball with enough precision that the player sitting in the chair can catch it easily.

    If the player misses their serve, the ball goes to the next player in line. If the serve is successfully caught, the player who served the ball changes places with the person in the chair, and the new player moves the chair to Area 2. Continue play until each player has made a few serves and gotten to sit in the chair or until the chair has made a few rounds around the court. To up the competitive spirit of the game enforce a rule where if a player serves out of bounds or into the net all members of their team must run and touch the 10 foot line, the end line, and the center line before returning to their positions.

    I HOPE YOU MAKE THE TEAM!!!


  2. For starters, way to go on choosing volleyball.  Go you!

    For conditioning, do say... fifteen pushups for a week.  Then the next week move it up to 20, and so on, and just keep it up-- It will get your muscles much more reliable.  

    Every night I come home and do 100 tosses  with my left hand, and try to make each toss like I was about to serve it--this works on my timing, and really helps me know how high or low I need to throw it before I hit it.  You don't neccicarily have to 100 tosses, but the more you do, the more consistant you become when it's actually time to serve.

    If you have an empty wall at home (I.E: In the garage or basement,) try serving against it.  Start 10 feet away.  Then drill that sucker into the wall ten times, and after doing so, take two steps back, and do 10 more.  Keep going back two steps until you cannot go any further away without running into a wall.  If you have a court availible ( I know people don't tend to keep such things in their back pocket, but if you do,) it might work better.  Start at the spiking line and serve it over the net ( if you can, convince someone to wait on the other side of the net to catch it.  It saves alot of running.)  Then do the same thing you would do inside:  Take a few steps back, and then do 10 serves more.  When your'e up close by the spiking line, you don't have to burn it into the opposite wall.  Starting close is so that you can concentrate on your stance, toss, and tecnique more than your power.  And as you step further and further back, you can start hitting it harder and harder.  

    I hope this helps, and good luck getting on the team.
