1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:26,260 hey what's up you guys welcome back to coco volley and today we're gonna talk about how to 2 00:00:26,260 --> 00:00:37,810 pass a volleyball now I've seen some common errors in my day and that involves the hands 3 00:00:37,810 --> 00:00:42,369 you got the in-between interloop hands, you have the put-together hands, sometimes you have the 4 00:00:42,369 --> 00:00:48,090 knuckle hands. If you have incorrect hands, sometimes that can cause injury. So let's learn 5 00:00:48,090 --> 00:01:02,560 how to make the correct hands. Now to make the correct hands, you're going to make an L shape 6 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:07,739 and you're going to bring your hands together. You want your platform to be as straight as possible. 7 00:01:08,019 --> 00:01:13,920 So you don't want to have these incorrect hands, these knuckle hands, these interloop hands. You 8 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,200 want to have L shape. So practice that a little bit. I know that it might be 9 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:24,400 different but try that out. The last thing we want to do is cause the ball to 10 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,859 ricochet off. So make sure you keep your platform straight and your hands are 11 00:01:27,859 --> 00:01:43,549 correct. Now passing does have some shoulder action. So let's engage those 12 00:01:43,549 --> 00:01:47,269 shoulders to make our platform completely straight, no gaps. As you can 13 00:01:47,269 --> 00:01:52,129 see my forearms are close as possible. That way I don't have a gap so the ball 14 00:01:52,129 --> 00:01:56,730 can slip through or so the ball can ricochet off I'm keeping my platform as 15 00:01:56,730 --> 00:02:18,169 straight and flat as possible now to find your perfect stance you want to be 16 00:02:18,169 --> 00:02:21,889 a little bit more than shoulder-width apart not too far where you feel like 17 00:02:21,889 --> 00:02:26,030 you're uncomfortable not too close where you can't get a proper squat but 18 00:02:26,030 --> 00:02:37,319 shoulder-width apart the best thing to do is to practice to find the best 19 00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:41,340 stance for you so find that level of comfortability where you are comfortable 20 00:02:41,340 --> 00:02:55,789 you can move and you can engage now when finding our squat we're looking for 21 00:02:55,789 --> 00:02:59,509 something called middle position and that's a level of comfortability where 22 00:02:59,509 --> 00:03:04,210 you're not too low you're not too high you're literally in the middle so you 23 00:03:04,210 --> 00:03:07,810 really have to find where the middle is for you I'm pretty tall I'm five foot 24 00:03:07,810 --> 00:03:11,590 nine so the middle for me is different for you so take time to practice that 25 00:03:11,590 --> 00:03:38,169 and then we're gonna review everything we've learned thus far now take the time 26 00:03:38,169 --> 00:03:43,590 to practice with me. Let's do all the steps together. Pause if you need to. Let's get it 27 00:03:43,590 --> 00:03:58,949 down. Now we're going to add on our last key, which is the stagger. We're going to keep our 28 00:03:58,949 --> 00:04:05,069 feet a little staggered apart, not a full lunge, just one step forward. I used my right foot, 29 00:04:05,189 --> 00:04:09,969 so I stepped forward just a little bit. That way it promotes agility. I can get the balls quicker 30 00:04:09,969 --> 00:04:31,649 and I'm on my toes. Now when you're passing angles, you want to utilize your shoulders. 31 00:04:31,649 --> 00:04:36,389 You're going to drop your shoulder slightly to get to a different angle and your platform is going to angle that way 32 00:04:36,529 --> 00:04:39,709 You also want to utilize the platform height 33 00:04:40,029 --> 00:04:46,709 So you're going to see me soon use my platform height to control the height of the ball how high how low the direction 34 00:04:46,709 --> 00:04:50,670 So your platform really does control a lot of aspects about the ball. I 35 00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:55,500 Suggest playing a little bit around with it 36 00:04:55,500 --> 00:05:00,860 So that way you can see the different directions you can go and the different things you can do passing a volleyball 37 00:05:00,860 --> 00:05:14,990 if you watch my volleyball vlogs one of the drills I do the most often it's 38 00:05:14,990 --> 00:05:18,709 called the left and right shuffle so a partner is gonna toss a ball left and 39 00:05:18,709 --> 00:05:25,550 right five times on each side and short and deep that way it keeps me spry I 40 00:05:25,550 --> 00:05:30,009 have to move for it I'm working on my form and my shuffle try this at home 41 00:05:30,009 --> 00:05:37,790 don't forget when you're practicing to start calling the ball to get into the 42 00:05:37,790 --> 00:06:17,680 habit like comment subscribe and I'll see you guys next time
