Game Strategies - Miss the Middle

Aim: To improve players shot placement and volleying.

How: This drill really needs between 4 and 6 players. If it is played with 6 players their will be 2 players on each baseline and 1 player up at the net on either side.

The 4 baseline players hit the ball between them trying to win points, but apart from trying to beat the baseline players at the opposite end they also have to attempt to miss out the player standing near the net on the opposite side.

The net player can try and intercept the ball, and hit a winning volley when it comes across the net. If the net player manages to intercept three balls the players on that side switch positions.
