Volleyball? jumpserve?

Question

well every seanson i challange myself to accomplish new things and this year its jump serve and setting better...practice drills, tips techniques, anything to help would be appericated!

Answer 1

Try a "J" jump serve first. I find that they are easier but still have the same effect. Start from the corner of the serving  line and run a J or a hook, and jump "into the ball". This serve USUALLY isnt as high as a jump serve but it will give you some ground work to start a jump serve

Answer 2

No, don't use the wall. It confuses your sets. The main reason for setting is to get it up in the air so one of your stronger players can spike it. Put a volleyball in your hands so you can see how your hands need to be shaped. Normally your index fingers and thumbs will form a triangle but they shouldn't be touching. Put that form in front of your eyes and push UPWARD. It is to get the ball up in the air for a SPIKE.  

Answer 3

well there are multiple jump serves

there is the jump floater and the actual jump serve

for a jump float you use the same approach you would to hit. right when you jump is when you barely toss the ball above your head and serve it.

jump serve you toss it high and do your full approach!

kinda confusin over typing

and to improove with setting take a ball and lightly set it not high just barely above the fingers repeatedly you can set lying down, on your knees or standing up all helps with finger dexterity and strength which is what helps with pushing the ball out to spikers.

you could also work on height and setting with a basket ball hoop position yourself to where the setter would be from the outside and set it in the hoop it works haha!

im no setter but i've played club for 6 years and these are usually what my club coaches do or you could use a weighted ball that helps too!

good luck!  

Answer 4

what my coach does to help me set better is he makes me stand near a wall and you bounce it off the wall and hit it with your finger tips

Hope this helps
