The Service Volleyball Definition Where Do You Serve After A Timeout?

The service volleyball definition explains how and where you need to place your volleyball serve especially after a timeout. Do you know where that place is?


When coaching serving I focus first on improving and performing the fundamental basic serving skills.

I can't emphasize enough that you are the only person who controls the effectiveness of YOUR serve.

Improving your volleyball service technique is the one fundamental skill you can do without the help or intervention of anyone else to score a direct point for your team. 

That is very powerful and trust me even many elite players don't take advantage of this unique opportunity.



  • The first place to serve after a team calls timeout is In the court

Serve in the court



This may sound funny or obvious but serving a tough ball in the court after a team has called a timeout is not always easy.

If a volleyball team has scored several points in a row and the opposing coach calls a timeout elite athletes always try to follow the Golden Rule "Keep your serve in" after a timeout has been called.

Why?

Because the opposing coach has called the timeout for several reasons ...one of which is to specifically distract YOU the server in hopes of getting you to MISS your serve which can instantly change the momentum of the game.

You keep your team's point scoring momentum ...by keeping your serve...in the court.

If you're a B team or JV player trying to make varsity next year...your goal should be to complete 1000 reps a day of at least three of the basic skills on your own...volleyball passing, serving and setting should be at the top of the list.
