Volleyball Warm-Up Drill: Tag Team Warm-Up

This drill develops communication, teamwork, and ball control while keeping players constantly moving. It provides high-rep passing, setting, and attacking opportunities in a fast-paced, rotating warm-up. Designed for large groups, it ensures maximum involvement and game-like energy right from the start of practice.

This volleyball warm-up drill keeps large groups active by combining passing, setting, tipping, and teamwork with a tag-in rotation system.

• Players: 3 active players inside the 10-foot line; 3 lines of players waiting behind the end line
• Court: Half or full court, depending on team size
• Equipment: Volleyballs, net
• Roles: Coach initiates play, active players execute pass–set–tip sequence, waiting players tag in

1. Coach begins by tossing a free ball or down ball into play, alternating sides of the court.
2. Active players execute a sequence: pass → set → tip the ball into the 10-foot line area on the opposite side.
3. After making contact, the player must run back, tag a teammate, and rotate out.
4. Tagged player enters the drill immediately, maintaining only 3 players on the court inside the 10-foot line at a time.
5. Rally scoring is used to track points, with a set goal (e.g., play to 10 or 15).
6. Suggested reps: Run 2–3 games of 8–10 minutes each, ensuring all players get multiple rotations.

• Add Defense: Place a back row defender on each side to dig tipped balls and extend rallies.
• Attacking Option: Allow attackers to swing hard instead of tipping for advanced groups.
• Speed Challenge: Reduce time allowed for tagging in to increase pace and conditioning.

• Hustle: Players must sprint to tag teammates and enter quickly.
• Communication: Call every ball clearly to avoid confusion.
• Technique: Emphasize controlled passes, clean sets, and accurate tips to target areas.
• Awareness: Ensure only 3 players remain active inside the 10-foot line.
• Common Game Situation: Replicates fast-paced transition rallies where fresh players must quickly enter and contribute.

This is a high-energy warm-up drill that keeps large teams engaged, moving, and communicating right from the start of practice.
