Pass the Pepper

Pepper is one of the most useful volleyball warm-up drills since it covers a variety of skills in a fast-paced manner. This variation of Pepper involves 4 players. To begin, divide the team into groups of 4. For this drill, player 1 is the hitter, player 2 is the setter, and players 3 and 4 are diggers, and they stand in a circle facing each other.

At the start of the drill, player 1 has the ball. They toss it up in the air, and hit it towards one of the two diggers. The digger pops the ball back up towards the setter, who sets it back to the hitter, who hits it towards one of the diggers. Play continues in this manner until the coach blows the whistle, signaling a change in positions.

If one of the players misses the ball and it falls to the ground, each member of the Pepper team must drop and do 10 push-ups or run to the nearest line and back 3 times. This will lead players to become more accurate with their hits, sets and digs, and prevents laziness when reaching for the more difficult shots.
