Must See Setting Drills to Boost Your Offense!

By nate.landas - Last updated: Tuesday, September 4, 2012

Here you will learn setting drills from Iowa State University Women’s Head Volleyball Coach, Christy Johnson-Lynch. The main activity you will see here is the Fan Drill. The assistant coaches will toss the ball from the right sideline toward different locations on the court. The setter must use good footwork in order to position themselves under the ball for the overhead pass.

There is also a release to spots drills that helps develop quick reactions for setting and digging.

Tips: Coaches, keep the drill game speed by making quick tosses. Athletes, make sure to stay mobile and be aware of your targets.

View an additional clip from the product page of “Game Speed Setting Drills.” Also, take a look at more high quality Christy Johnson-Lynch DVDs and other world class instructional Volleyball DVDs.
