Hi, I’m David Fischer, 12 year AVP Pro and 12 year volleyball coach and my goal is to help you pass perfect!
As every volleyball player knows, the most fundamental skill of the game is passing. While playing indoor college volleyball at Stanford University and the last 12 years on the AVP tour I have been able to study first hand from some of the best passers in the world what they do to pass perfectly every time. This videos series will include tools and drills I picked up along my volleyball journey as a player and coach!
This video series is great for players and coaches of all levels. It will offer new ways to teach common skills as well as discuss how to successfully integrate new overhand passing rules for your own and team success. This video series will start from the basic hand position, footwork, stance and build into specific exercises that can help improve this most fundamental of skills.
All six of these volleyball passing how to videos are available to members of volleyball1on1.com.
