Volleyball Passing Drills in 10 Minutes

4 volleyball passing drills you can do with things you probably already have at home — a cone, tennis balls, a cutting board, and an old sweater (plus a pool noodle trick that makes one of the cues physical). Coach Natalia Klementova (professional player, 27 years overseas, now coaching in Canada) and guest coach Dennis Famin break down the platform mechanics most players get wrong, and show you exactly how to fix them. This video covers the passing fundamentals that usually take hours of repetition to feel natural — angle, rhythm, arm position — using simple household objects to make the correction physical instead of just verbal. 🏐 What's covered: Cone & tennis ball drill for platform angle Cutting board drill for reading the ball's rhythm The "lemons under your armpits" cue — plus a pool noodle trick to make it physical Sweater roll trick to stop standing up mid-pass If you're a coach or a parent looking for creative ways to drill fundamentals without expensive equipment, this one's for you.
