Call the Tempo

Set it up

1. The setter at the net with hitters at outside, middle, and right side.
2. The coach feeds passes.

Run the drill

1. The coach calls the set while the pass is still in the air.
2. The setter must deliver that set.
3. Run 12 calls and count accurate deliveries.

What to say

• Hear it, then deliver it.
• Hands ready before the ball arrives.
• Same hands for every tempo.

How to score it

12 calls, count accurate deliveries.

Make it harder

1. The hitter calls for the ball instead of the coach, and the setter has to hear it in traffic.
