Volleyball defense

Reception and defense are the most important techniques in volleyball. In 1 out of 3 balls, a reception or defense is played. The defense refers to the first action after the opponent’s serve. Often this term is confused with defense, the action after an opponent’s attack hit. Reception and defense are distinctly different from each other, and therefore there are separate drills to train these techniques. Are you looking for reception and defense drills? Then you are at the right place at VolleyballXL.
