Rally with a partner or against a wall

Instruction/Development: Introduce Volleyball Unit

Gather students in close in order to explain

Volleyball is a very difficult sport to learn because it involves a lot of different skills and tactics

We have a huge range of talent in the class

I will make many adaptations throughout the unit (e.g. one bounce, soft balls) in order to allow everyone to progress and learn.

Quick review of volleyball rules

We will have a rules, strategies, and skills quiz at the end of the unit, so please pay attention to cues and rules throughout the lessons

1. What is the basic objective of the game of volleyball? o To score on your opponent

2. What is the maximum amount of times an individual player can touch the ball in a row? o Once

3. How many players on the court at a time (in a regulation game)? o Six

Page 3: Volleyballimages.pcmac.org/.../Uploads/Forms/VolleyballUnitPlan.pdf · 2019. 9. 24. · 1 Physical Education Unit: Volleyball Lesson #1: Introduction to Volleyball The students will

2

4. What is the maximum amount of times the team can touch the ball before it goes over the net? o Three times

5. How can you score a point in volleyball? o Hit it over the net so that the opponent cannot return it o Force the opponent to make an error

6. What number are volleyball games played to? o Games are played to 25 points (must win by 2) o Teams can score on either their serve or the opponents’ (called rally point)

Ask the students for any other rules that they might remember: o Point out the boundary lines to students (as well as the service line and attack line) o A player cannot touch the net o A player cannot cross underneath the net o The ball may hit the net and fall over o A player may play the ball off the net (on their own side) as long as they still have one of

their three hits left o If a team mate hits it off the court, you may still get the ball (hustle for it – don’t give up!)

Newcomb Volleyball

Newcomb is the classic volleyball lead-up or introductory game

It has all the elements of regulation volleyball except the volleying of the ball

The game is played by throwing the volleyball back and forth over the net

Newcomb is used as an introduction to volleyball rules and concepts

With some changes, Newcomb can be more sophisticated and more fun, but first let's look at the basic game

Two teams of from six to nine players each line up on opposite sides of the net.

To start the match, the ball is thrown over the net from the right rear end line.

The Player catching the ball then throws the ball back over the net from the spot where it was caught.

A point is earned when a player on the catching side fails to catch a thrown ball that lands within the playing area or if the ball is touched and dropped.

If the ball is thrown out-of-bounds, the other team scores a point.

The number of points needed to win the game is usually 25, but teams can play for any number of points.

The variation of this game is to allow three passes to be made on the same side of the net before returning the ball over the net.

Through rapid, accurate passing the ball direction can be changed to outmanoeuvre the opponents.

If the ball is dropped during the passing process, the point is lost.

This variation can lead to hilarity and excitement as the ball is passed faster and faster and all players are forced to respond to the actions of the passed ball.

A good workout will be had by all.

Option: Elimination Nuke’ Em. If you are the player responsible for a lost point, you must sit down. The team with the last player standing wins.

Castle Game

This is a challenging game

Choose an experienced student to demonstrate with

Arrange the students in pairs

Rules: o 1 pt for hitting cone o Hit above head height o Any type of hit o Alternate hits/return to base o Must allow the ball to bounce

Culminating Activity: Keep It Out

The object of this game is to end up with the fewest number of balls on your side of the net

Students are divided into two teams on both sides of the volleyball net

Every student on each side of the net will have a ball (if you do not have enough balls for each student, use as many balls as possible)

On a start signal, both teams begin throwing balls over the net to the opposing team

Opposing team players retrieve and throw the balls back over the net

Play continues with both teams throwing the balls back and forth over the net

When playing this game you should establish a time limit for game play

At the end of the time limit, the game is stopped and each team counts the number of balls on their side of the net

Scoring: One point is awarded per ball on each team’s side. The team with the lowest score wins the game.

Skills Highlighted: Students develop throwing and catching, sharing coverage with teammates, communication with teammates, and readiness to move in any direction.

Closure: Ticket Out the Door

As a class, please provide me with 5 general rules of volleyball

Make a platform with forearms

Contact the ball with the forearms (NOT wrists or hands)

Cup hands with thumbs together

Release hands between passes (do not ‘glue’ them together) Continuous Passing

Objective: to continually pass to yourself

How many in a row can you get?

Complete each progression for one minute o Have options for softer balls (this activity can hurt the arms)

Progressions: o Pass it to yourself repeatedly one meter in the air o Pass it to yourself and clap once (to ensure you un-lock hands between hits) o Challenging options:

Pass it to yourself and spin 360 degrees (to replicate the disorientation you may feel on the court)

Pass it to yourself and sit down Castle Game

5

Use only the forearm pass

Above head height – gives time to partner (aim for at least one meter in the air)

Reinforce cues

Make sure to unclasp hands between hits

Keep it Up

With your partner from the Castle Game, join up with another pair to form a group of 4

The object of this game is to work together as a team to keep a ball in-bounds and off the floor

Students are divided into two teams on both sides of the net

Each team has one ball and attempts to keep the ball in play (by forearm passing) among the team members on their side of the net only

In this game the ball will not go over the net to the other side

The team is out if the ball travels out of bounds, touches the floor twice or goes over the net

Scoring: One point per hit on the appropriate side of the net is awarded.

Skills Highlighted: Students develop passing, volleying, positioning and repositioning for best coverage, sharing coverage with teammates, communication with teammates, and readiness to move in any direction.

Culminating Activity:

4 vs. 4

Same teams as ‘Keep it Up’

Use knees and extend arms and legs (flex knees and elbows) o in order to gain height

Why would you want an overhead pass to be high? o time for your team mate to get to it

Form a diamond window (watch the ball meet fingers)

Not a slap, it is a push

Follow through in direction of flight Passing Against the Wall

Above the line (choose a line on the gym wall that is approximately net height)

overhand passes, each team keeps it up for as long as possible. As soon as the ball hits the ground on one side, the opposite team gets a point.

Closure: What must you do to get height on an overhead pass?

Flex legs and arms

Hit upwards and forwards

Extend body upwards on contact

What is the difference between an overhead pass and a set?

An overhead pass is a pass between players, whereas a set is an offensive pass to ‘set up’ a spike
