Overview:

This new edition features 99 drills that develop players' offensive and defensive skills. The drills come with performance goals and a list of key points to remember when executing each drill. Plus, many include instructions for increasing or decreasing the difficulty of the drill. Each step is an easy transition from the one before. The first steps cover fundamental volleyball skills - correct posture, passing, and serving. As players progress, they will learn to execute more difficult techniques - attacks, blocks, and offensive and defensive systems.
