Volleyball Practice Drill to Work on Passing Accuracy!

Michelle Collier • Championship Productions

Head Coach, Georgia Tech Volleyball

Session Overview

Georgia Tech Volleyball head coach Michelle Collier breaks down a competitive passing accuracy drill that trains serve-receivers to pass consistently to the setter target zone. Passers work in small groups against live servers, earning points based on pass quality while learning to adjust platform angles on balls served short, deep, and into the seams.

Core Biomechanical & Tactical Principles

Grade every serve-receive contact on a 3-point scale so passers receive immediate feedback on platform angle and height
Challenge passers with live serves from multiple zones to force early footwork adjustments and seam communication
Rotate servers and passers after fixed point thresholds to simulate end-of-set serving and passing pressure

Verbal Coaching Cues for Practice:

"Beat the serve with your feet""Angle your platform to the setter target""Hold your finish after contact"

Why Recommended for Coaches:

Gives coaches a structured, point-based serve-receive drill from an ACC head coach to sharpen platform angles and target precision.
