Enjoy these following six videos to learn how to perfect your pass!
Position
When passing a volleyball, your positioning is key. Always be aware of where the endline and backline are compared to you. You and your partner should decide before the serve who will be covering the middle so that there is no confusion during the game.
Arms
When playing volleyball the positioning of where your arms should be is very important in passing. I recommend always keeping your arms out in front of you so that you are prepared for anything and can easily locate the ball and make the pass.
Communicate
Communication is key in any sport but especially when passing in volleyball. Being able to communicate with your partner on who will cover the middle and where the ball is going will help lead you to a win. By communicating you are making it so there is little to no confusion while on the court and you are able to cover more ground in less time.
Location
Location is very important when learning how to pass a volleyball; it allows you and your partner to determine who will cover what when there is a serve that is in between both you and your partner. You will also want to position yourself so that your opponents have no choice but to serve the ball to where you like it, closing off your weak spots.
Warm Up
When warming up for game time it is important that you have your partner throw the ball to you and you practice passing to them perfectly. This gives you an opportunity to perfect your pass so that during game time your pass is flawless.
Drill
When preparing for a game, a drill that I find to be very helpful is when my partner throws the ball to my weak spot forcing me to practice and become comfortable with covering those spots when passing.
