Wisconsin Volleyball Coaches Association

Drill of the Month

Ace and Replace Drill

Split team up in half.  One half serves, the other half serve receives.  The goal for the servers is to ace an opposing player, and then they get to replace her on the other side of the net.  The goal for the receivers is to pass great and to remain on the passing side throughout the drill.  As long as they don't get aced, they stay.

Variations:

You can add a setter and play it out.

You can have a target and have the passers keep score based on how good the pass was "0, 1, 2, 3 options."
