Description
•Play starts with an underhand toss to the opponent. You may not ‘serve to win’. The purpose of the serve is to put the ball into play.
•Once served, the ball is allowed to bounce once on the other side at any time during the series.
•The receiving team is allowed to play the ball up to three times before their return. However, one player can not touch the ball twice in a row. (Just like real volleyball)
•Play continuous until the ball lands outside of the grid or it touches the ground more than once.
•The game is scored like regular volleyball. Teams get points only on their own serve.
Variations:
-For players whose skills are not that develped, allow the ball to bounce once after every touch that is made.
-Allow two points for ‘header’ scores.
-Demand that both players must play the ball before it goes back over the net.
Coaching Points
•Receiving technique, volleys, heading
