What are som good volleyball skills to practice alone?

Question

Im trying out for my school team later this month and I REALLY want to make it! What are some good ways to practice?

Answer 1

If you want to play back row you should practice sprawling and doing pancakes also squats, and platform. For hitting you should practice your approach, arm swing, jumping & blocking.

Answer 2

Practice the basics.

Against a bare wall outside, bump the ball to the same spot fifty times, or until you hit the spot perfectly ten times in a row.

set to yourself 50 times or agaist a wall, and again pick a spot to aim at.

serving gets tricky, so serve to the wall at a spot higher than 10 feet.

if you can, mark the spots with colored tape, like painters tape.

good luck!!

Answer 3

Well, I personally do everything. First: Diving, you pass it to you, set it, and then hit it down lightly enough that you can get it, but hard enough that you have to dive for it. Hitting wise, you can go outside, pass it to yourself, set it, and hit it against the wall, or just pass and smack in an open area. Try everything against a wall, esp: setting. This will get all of your power and strength.

I might have forgotten something, but I'll add it if I did.

good Luck!

Answer 4

1. Stretch

2. Set against a wall, in the same spot

3. Pass against a wall, in the same spot

4. Pass then set, pass then set, etc. in the same spot

5. Serve against a wall, above where you think the net is. Try serving it left, middle, right, left, middle, right. etc.

6. Stretch

You should also try running up and down your street a few times, to keep your legs in shape, and doing push ups keep your arms up.

But ALWAYS stretch before AND after practicing, or you can get sore or cramp up.

Answer 5

OOHH I have a really great thing!!! If you bump, set, hit it with your right arm, and then hit it with you left arm to yourself you will get great ball control. Try and make sure they all go 5 feet above your head once you get the hang of it. You can also throw in some header if you want to
