goal
The players try to play the ball over the net on to the floor of the opponent.

 START
The ball has to be played with an underhand-serve over the net from behind the serve-line, the ball may touch the net.  

rules

1. The ball has to be played three times before crossing the net.

2. The second ball contact is a mandatory non-interrupted catch-throw-movement.  This can be done in three ways:

•          With extended arms forwards.

•          With extended arms backwards, throwing overhead.

•          With extended arms in an angle.

3.  It is not allowed to throw the second ball over the net.

4.  When a player has made three serves in a row the team rotates and the next player has to serve.

5. The extra players are obliged to re-enter the game at the serve-spot.

score

Rallypoint: every mistake is a point to the opponent.  

MOTIVATION
The second ball is in this stage of the player’s development the hardest ball to handle because playing the overhead pass and the forearm pass at an angle is difficult. The chance of mistakes is big and the game has to be stopped many times. Through using the catch-throw  method for the second ball, the rally can be continued. Stimulate that the second ball is parallel to the net; the last player can run to the net/ball before playing it with an overhead pass  

Goals

1. New: forward overhead pass to a team-mate (practice).

2.  Playing together in a threeballs contact, where the second ball is played parallel to the net. The player who stands to the left or the right on the court can/should step towards the ball to be able to play the ball over the net.

3.  Playing in angles. When a player has to play the ball to the left (from the view of the player), his/her left foot has to be in front. An angle to the right means of course that his right foot should be in front.

4. Serving over greater distance, from behind the serve-line.

•   Playing together / 3 times

•   Correct foot-position at ball contact.
