These volleyball setting drills are explained by five accomplished setter coaches who are specialists in teaching and coaching this skill.
Hear from these five experts...
...about what their fave volleyball setting drills are, why they do them and what you can expect to gain by doing them too.
First up is USA Volleyball Olympic Silver medalist Alisha Glass.
In this video Alisha talks about how easy the "catch and release" contact of the ball during your setting technique should be.
Watch as she demonstarates an "easy-to-do" at-home floor drill which aims to help you improve your setting form.
If you're looking for volleyball setting drills to do at home, the second suggestion focuses on wall drills which I highly recommend doing.
Especially as you move away from the wall, wall drills are good for building hand and shoulder strength and increasing accuracy.

I share alot of individual, partner and easy-to-do volleyball serving drills we do in class with my followers.
Many of these volleyball practice drills you can do at home by yourself or try at your next practice with your teammates.

Your three options are:
