How do u get better at volleyball?

Question

don't just say practice; i need some tips or techniques fromsome volleyball fans out there. Thanks

Answer 1

practice your passing, to yourself, to others, to the wall. i don't care, just pass. (depending if you have a libero on your team).

practice jumping, plus some resistance when you're ready.

practice setting like you practice passing. make sure you set above your forehead.

PEPPER WITH A FRIEND (bump, set, hit to each other)

and now some more common sense...

stay in "mogo" (ready for volleyball position)... knees bent, feet shoulder-width apart, on the balls of your feet. shuffle in mogo position (front to back to front to back, side to side to side to side), block from the mogo position, start your approach from the mogo position, set from the mogo position. the only time you're out of mogo position when you're on the floor is on serve

Answer 2

practicing

Answer 3

if u what to be a good player u have to practice.There's no short cut . At least u have to own your own ball. And from that u can know what u want . Passing good u have to practice that at home at least 10-15 minute . I'll bet in 1 week u will be a better player . I know it cause i had done that . The main thing at volley is serving and passing . Blocking and smashing is just the bonus . Just think for a second  if u hit good but u can't passing .....

i hope these will help

Answer 4

practice and play with the same group of people.  Adjust and get used to the players around you.  watch others play and see how they do things.

Answer 5

You say, "don't say practice", but that is the real answer.  However, to be a better player, learn to take critism and suggestions.  Remember, no matter what level, someone out there is better than you.  And even if you're at the top, eventually, someone will de-throne you.  

Listen to what others have to say.  Don't get such a cocky attitude that no one can teach you.  In fact, you don't have to talk to anyone.  

Analyze others' games.  Watch them and see "how they did it" and "what went wrong".

Don't just sit there and say "that was a nice hit."  Instead, look at it and say, "that was a nice hit because he waited on the approach, contacted the ball in front of him/her, swing through the ball, etc."

Not only do you look at individual performance, look at team performance.  For example, the opponent is getting ready to hit.  You look at the defense.  Think to yourself, if he/she hits angle, the defense will set up "here".  You get the idea.

The idea is to keep your eyes open and soak in all the great things you see.

I've done that for years and it will help you to "mimic" and become a better player.  Also, it really helps if you want to coach down the years.

Answer 6

It depends on what position you are. If you are a hitter, it helps to count your approch

Answer 7

1> Join a good team. When the team gets better, you get better. My team was always one of those bottom two in high school when we played against other class rooms, but I played way better in college with a very good team, as I was switched from the ourside hitter to the middle hitter/blocker).

2> "Hire" a good coach if possible. A good coach would have the experience to set up more plays and call the right play at the right time.

3> Play more real games. You would still have to focus on fundamentals during practice, but "real games" can put a team together and let team members gel. The reason my setter could always find me in the air is that he knows my energy level and knows where to find me by listening to my foot steps... and you get to understand how to cover your teammates and how much they can cover themselves during real "serious" games (only during serious games could players dive into the same spot, and real-game-practice could help prevent the crash).

4> Read more books and more online articles. Enrich yourself with plays and strategies, discuss what you read with your coach, and put them into your practice and games when possible.

5> Watch high level games (including Olympics, etc.)  Learn from pros, and get yourself ready for the next level.

0> Practice :)

Hope this helps.
