The Dig Volleyball Drills We Do In Training That I Explain on Instagram Like My "Don't Make Me Move" Volleyball Dig Quotes" I Explain About The Figure 8 Drill



Working on staying on your feet to deliver a free ball right to the target without making the target move (me in this case) vs. having to hit the floor to make an emergency play to dig a ball up. (Volume up)

In this case I wasn’t counting but in most cases we’d have to get a certain number of balls right to the target and playable balls up in defense in order to stop the drill.

The Dig Volleyball Drills We Do In Training That I Explain on Instagram Like Diggers Putting Hands Together Faster When Digging The Line


Working with @joli.volleyball on putting hands together earlier when digging line.

Many times players wait too long before putting their hands together … especially when they have to dig line where they have less time to react.

Once a hitter is in the air and has committed to the beginning of their arm swing … hands should be close to or already together..

The Dig Volleyball Drills We Do In Training That I Explain on Instagram

Izzy working on digging technique during semiprivate training on Thursdays.

Both in semiprivate training and month of May Libero clinics Izzy has been really working on reading
👉🏾the body language of the hitter,
👉🏾hitter’s arm speed when contacting the balland
👉🏾presenting the correct angled platform

so the ball is a settable ball that’s high and drops right at or just inside the ten foot line.

Also working on technique consistency being able to repeat the same movements correctly with each dig.

Great improvement Izzy!

The Dig Volleyball Drills We Do In Training That I Explain on Instagram Like the Hit and Dig Ball Control Warmup Drill



I love the Hit and Dig Ball Control warmup drill because…

…you get to work on good spiking technique while your partner works on reading and good digging technique…both with the ultimate goal of controlling the ball to your intended target.
.
.
Ella works on reaching high ..keeping elbow above the level of her ear ….and Carm in defense…works on presenting the right angle with her platform so that the ball is dug right back to her target ..in this case Ella…without making E move any steps.
