Create many competitive, game-like contacts with very little standing.
Set it up
- Use a short court for 2v2, 3v3, or 4v4.
- One team begins on the queen side.
Run the drill
- Challengers initiate with a serve or coach toss.
- Win the rally to move to the queen side; the losing team rotates off.
- Keep a new ball ready so the next rally begins within five seconds.
What to say
- Talk before the ball crosses.
- Use open court, not only power.
- Rotate fast so everyone stays active.
