Setup

3 passers in W-formation. Server on opposite side. Setter at net (position 2/3).

Instructions

  1. Server varies — float, topspin, jump serve.
  2. Passers call the ball early (mine).
  3. Pass to setter target — aim for hands, not body.
  4. Setter catches or sets back. Rotate passers every 10 serves.

Coaching Points

✓ Platform angle — face where you want the ball to go.
✓ Move feet first, then platform.
✓ Don't arm-swing — absorb the power.

Progressions

→ Setter sets to a hitter who attacks.
→ Serve from different zones to vary angle.
→ Target: 8 out of 10 passes on target.
