Pipeline Passing

The purpose of this volleyball drill is to improve volleyball player lateral movement while forearm passing.

This volleyball drill needs two players. Place two dotted lines of the court about 10 feet apart. All passing occurs between these lines. After one player passes the ball to her partner, she must shuffle sideways to her right and touch the sideline. Next, she must shuffle back before the pass arrives back from her partner. After 10 passes each, shuffle to the left sideline for 10 more.

Benefits
Players learn how to get into proper passing position when tired. This volleyball passing drill can also be used for volleyball conditioning. The passer can improve lateral movement speed and agility.

Variations
Increase the distance players have to travel to make the drill more difficult. Also, players passing the ball lower can make the volleyball drill more challenging.

To make this drill a little more game like have the tosser twice the distance as the target and work with 2 balls to maintain the desired tempo.

Use this for conditioning by first starting at 10 repetitions and then add a couple repetitions each workout.
