Volleyball Tips For Girls On How To Use Pepper Warmup To Improve Your Defense
Many volleyball players don’t know how to use the Pepper Warm up Drill as a way to improve their volleyball game. Below are 5 ways elite volleyball players use “Pepper” as a way to improve their volleyball defensive game.
1. Improving your ball control is the number one reason for mastering the pepper warmup drill.
2. The second reason is to improve your serve receive form and technique.
I firmly believe, that pepper is the number one most effective way for indoor volleyball players to improve their ball control. But you must know how to use the drill effectively. and that starts with understanding why you are even doing the Pepper drill in the first place. If you don’t understand why you are doing this drill then its just becomes a way to raise your body temperature and increase your pulse rate.
a. If YOU set the volleyball–whoever sets should be working on form and technique.
Your Goal–the ball should go right to your partner without them moving more than one step in any direction to chase your ball.
b. When Your partner passes the volleyball back– his/her concentration should be on using excellent form for serve receive and free ball passing, taking advantage of the fact that this is an easy ball.
Your Goal–is first to pass the volleyball so she/he can hit the ball right back to you without taking more than one step. Secondly, bump setting practice for accuracy is a priority, so each and every ball goes right back to above the hitters extended hitting arm.
c. When You spike the ball back. You hit a controlled 1/2 to 3/4 speed down ball right to your partner. In this instance you have a controlled situation where you can practice the finer points of your armswing. Before the game here’s where you can concentrate on “reaching” –raising your elbow and hitting high while controlling the ball speed. Just because there’s no net doesn’t mean you can make contact with the ball down by your ear. If you hit low in Pepper it means you are training your body to hit low in your spiking warm up line and then you’ll be more likely to spike low without reaching high for the ball in a game. Trust me–it all transfers. Your body is recording every movement you make it do in volleyball practice-so pledge to yourself to do the movements correctly, so in game everything will happen automatically.
Your Goal– To hit the spot you are aiming for which in the Pepper drill means right to your partner, so that she doesn’t have to move more than one step UNLESS you choose to mix up your attack and include a tip to your partner. I highly recommend mixing up your attack only after you have improved your ball control.
d. Your partner digs–focus should be on being down in your defensive position before your partner hits the ball which means by the time they make contact with ball. Because Pepper partners are relatively close together you will automatically be developing quick reflexes. Here is where you practice combining your quick reflexes with BALL CONTROL. React quickly…then control the ball. React quickly then c-o-n-t-r-o-l the ball.
Your Goal–Is to learn and practice how to absorb a hard hit ball that has been spiked at you from a close distance and then delivering that ball (ever so softly, ever so accurately people) in control, to your target without making them move more than one step. Here’s where you learn to fight to maintain control of the ball by controlling the movements of your body.
3. The third reason is to increase your range in volleyball defense.
By tipping the ball further and further out of your partner’s reach advanced players can challenge their partners (you both need to agree to make the drill work) by tipping the ball further and further out of reach – the more of these balls you get in pepper-the more you will get in the game. It all transfers. Or by hitting a 1/2 to 3/4 speed down ball a foot or 2 to the right or left of the defender will increase your range of harder hit defensive balls that you dig up around you.
4. The fourth reason is to narrow your focus and concentration.
How many times have you gone to a volleyball tournament and had half a court that you could use to pepper with your partner? Hardly ever, I’m sure. That’s because Pepper warm ups almost always take place in a crowded environment. You may have 25 teammates on either side of you trying to pepper, or you and your partner are near that net divider that separates the courts in a tournament, or you have fans that walk up and down the aisles, team benches, believe it or not this is a great practice opportunity where you narrow your focus and concentration so that it doesn’t matter what happens around you …the world can come to an end but your focus is only on the volleyball.
5. The fifth reason is to increase your reactions and diminish any fear of the ball
As your ball control gets better then you and your Pepper partner should agree to challenge each other to make each other better players. When you get to the point when you are exchanging 10 to 12 pass,set,hit combinations in a row, both of you should stop and commit to hitting harder at each other. About 3/4 the speed of your regular down-ball spike-BUT YOUR GOAL is to still work up to as many pass-set-hit exchanges as you can while controlling the ball. Your digs should still be going right to each other.
Remember the ball is in Your hands!

Girls Volleyball Tips: Top 5 Ways Females Can Improve Their Volleyball Skills
I am frequently asked by female players what are some of the best ways to improve their volleyball skills. I decided to write this article to discuss five of the more popular things I suggest most frequently. Remember these may not work for everybody but it may give you some ideas as to what will work for you.
1. Play with the fellas.
I have to say this may be a very personal suggestion because it has always worked for me. Since I was young whenever I had the chance…I would always compete with the fellas. During high school recess there would be volleyball pick up games and I’d be the only girl but I played as much as I could.
I find that my mental toughness increased when I played with guys because they would say anything and everything during a competition. Either you learn to take it or you learn to give it right back. The beauty of this is guys almost never bring what is said ON the court OFF the court.
My physical toughness improved because guys hit hard and they move quickly and if I was going to compete with them then I’d have to learn how to dig their hard hits, set high and accurately, place my shots and just play smarter volleyball so I would add value to my team. (And so I’d be picked to play in the next game.)
I didnt’ play to look cute or waste their time I played to improve my game since I knew my goal was to make the National team and play professionally in Italy so I kept finding opportunities to play with people who were bigger, better and faster than I was. In college I played with the UT Men’s club team in the offseason and I’d practice on the men’s courts-where they’d let me play- against guys on the beach in fours and doubles games in California.
2. Practice By Yourself.
To play better volleyball don’t underestimate the importance of wall drills. I can’t believe my garage door where I lived during my high school years is still standing. After my homework and many times before I would do thousand s of reps of setting and passing to the wall to improve my accuracy, to improve my ball handling, to improve my finger strength, to get use to and overcome the pain created by the ball contacting my forearms when passing.
3. Seek out a mentor.
Not everybody knows what they are talking about even though they may call themselves a coach. And not everybody lives in areas of the country where volleyball is the most popular or most practiced sport.
It’s exactly for this reason a virtual volleyball mentoring community like volleyball voices was created. Luckily the Internet gives players a chance to find experts who can explain from experience, their expertise on how to perform certain fundamentals, what drills to practice to improve your individual and team skills, how to better your playing performance as well as volleyball forums and groups to join to talk about common problems and issues.
4. Play Sand Volleyball.
Not everybody can do this but those who can need to take advantage of the opportunity. The sand provides a soft, uneven pliable surface which contributes to indoor players increasing their jump and increasing their speed when they transition from practicing outdoors to playing indoors.
One of my two high school coaches was Chris Rundle wife of beach legend Larry Rundle who would often have our indoor varsity volleyball team practice and do conditioning drills on the beach since our school was so close to it. At first I would just die from exhaustion because the sand seemed to hold me back from doing any of the skills I was used to doing well. But it doesn’t take long to get used to it. That was the first time I learned the benefit of practicing in the sand because when I started running and jumping indoors then I was alot faster and jumped alot higher since the gym floor didn’t provide the resistance that the sand did.
5. Do Bodyweight Workouts.
For players who don’t have access to gyms, gym memberships, free weights, or personal trainers bodyweight training is one of the best most efficient ways to make yourself stronger, lose fat and gain muscle in order to play better volleyball. Body weight workouts are exercises where you have to use the weight of your body as resistance.
So you’d use exercises that train multiple muscle groups at the same time – thus burning more energy, and fat, and with each repetition gaining more muscle. Exercises that are done include squats, lunges, presses, and rows. For more information on turbulence training or body weight training refer to volleyball voices.
Remember the ball is in Your hands.

Volleyball Tips For Girls: Five Things To Communicate To Your Front Row Players
Have you ever played volleyball with a blindfold on? When players don’t communicate on the court it’s like playing with a blindfold on. When players talk about what’s going on during a game, communication reduces the confusion on the court. Here are five tips on what and how to communicate to your front row players.
1. Tell Your Hitters Where To Hit Or What’s Open On The Court.
To play better volleyball one of the best things you can communicate to your front row hitters is what part of the court is open. This can be combined with letting them know what the block is NOT taking away. This can be done in two ways. You can wait between plays and after the ball is dead you can tell your hitter “Hey they keep blocking you line just keep cranking it hard cross court. ” Or you can do what I do and what elite beach volleyball players are taught and trained to do and that’s to yell to the hitter what is open as the play is developing. It takes practice …so do it in practice but get used to watching for what the block is taking away then call the opposite OR call the open area on the court. Use one syllable commands and Say them loudly just before your hitter makes contact with the ball at the height of his spike. Call “LINE”, “CROSS”, “TIP”.
2. Tell Your Hitter Where The Block Is.
A second tip on how to play better volleyball is to tell your hitter whether the block is UP or not. I yell “Nobody” which lets my hitter know that she can swing away and hit the poop out of the ball with no worries. This often happens on a ball that has come back over unexpectedly and the opposing team’s block doesnt have time to form but your hitter is looking UP at a high ball unable to see whether he/she has a block or not. By calling out “nobody” you are being your hitter’s eyes.
Another option to help out your hitter is tell them how many blockers he/she has. I learned in Italy to communicate as much as possible about how many blockers my hitter had just before they hit. “Y’ got ONE” or “Y’ got TWO” let’s my hitter receive information that they have ONE or TWO blockers up …that helps them decide how and where they want to hit the ball.
3. Tell Your Team Who the Hitters Are On The Opposing Team’s Front Row.
Playing better volleyball means calling out where and who the front row hitters are on the opposite team. Say it out loud and if you want to point with your fingers like I do….Do it…that’s always fun it just adds a little emphasis.
Let everybody know on your team whether the setter is front row which means it’s possible for her to turn and hit or to tip it over to your court. Let everybody know especially her…that YOU know where she is. Say It LOUD. Trust me usually setters are less likely to sneak attack a tip when they know that YOU know that they are front row.
4. Remind Your Team About The Characteristics of the Opposing Hitters.
You can play better volleyball even from the backrow because sometimes the back row is the best place in the house to see what is happening at the net. If there is a particular hitter that your block can’t seem to stop…watch to see exactly How that spiker is being successful then communicate that to your front row.
Here’s what I mean. If the same hitter has gotten points by repeatedly spiking the ball on your side its your responsibiliity to give your blockers the information needed to stop them. Are your blockers jumping too soon against a hitter with a slow armswing. Then tell them to “Wait” and time their block so they go up later. Is the hitter beating your block by hitting inside the middle blocker’s internal hand? Tell the outside blockers (with the coach’s approval) to take one more step to the middle of the court-taking away more of the cross court.
5. It’s Essential To Remember To “Cover” Your Hitters.
Quite simply playing better volleyball means 24/7 coverage. I have seen many balls that were easy to recover that were blocked and deflected right back to the feet of the off blockers who forgot to cover their hitters. These are easy opportunities for your team to replay the ball and either sideout or make a point. Why waste the opportunity when it’s as easy as reminding everybody including and especially the off hitter/blockers who didn’t get set to come and “cover” the hitter.
Playing better volleyball means practicing your individual skills. Remember the ball is in Your court!
Coaching Girls Volleyball Skills: Top 5 Serve Receive Secrets Volleyball Champions Know
Here are five tips champion athletes use to improve their volleyball serve receiving skills. Now you can easily adopt these volleyball skills to improve your technique during games and volleyball tournaments.
1. Learning to Read the Server’s Body Position is the first volleyball skill to remember.
When a volleyball player is ready to serve – they usually give you some indication where they are planning to serve. By checking their lower body, their feet and especially their hip position you get some clues as to whether they want to serve the volleyball cross court or down the line.
Also check out where their shoulders are facing and where there tossing arm is – this will give you additional clues. Alot of servers when they want to serve a short ball to the front row hitters on the opposite side – MANY times they step right up to the serving line as close as they can. This is a pretty good indication that a short serve is coming. So when you see that don’t wait for your volleyball coach to tell you, just adjust accordingly by taking a step closer to the net so that you cover any short serves that come in your area.
2. Volleyball Skill Number two is to Stay Low.
Once the referee’s whistle blows DON”T STAND UP! Stay in “shoulders hunched/slightly crouched” ready position in order to serve receive. Why?
a) Because if the server serves you deep or short its easier for you to move forwards and backwards – if you are in a slightly crouched position. b) By standing up, the ball will more than likely hit you in the chest. As the serve crosses the net Stay Low – while preparing your body position and platform to serve receive.
3. Another complicated volleyball skill to remember – Talk!
Be ready to take responsibility for balls that’re served to you or in your area – by calling “MINE” in a loud clear voice so your teammmates know that you WANT that ball and only you will pass that ball. It allows your teammmates to set up early for whatever they need to do next.
Communicate what serve you think is coming. If I see someone “toeing” the line- by this I mean stepping up really close to the server’s line then I will tell my beach partner OR my indoor teammates in a loud voice “Watch out for the short serve!” This mentally helps you AND your teammates to be ready to move quickly if the short serve comes. This way everybody on the volleyball court KNOWS and is aware of the short ball possibly coming.
You’ve also made the server aware of the fact that you know what they are about to do so it puts more presssure on them to concentrate .
4. Volleyball Skill Number Four is to Focus on the Volleyball.
Once you’ve checked out the server’s body position and where they look like they are serving and called it out to your teammates…once the whistle blows Focus on the BALL while its in the server’s tossing hand.
Once the server tosses the volleyball they really can’t change much of anything else so I visibly TRACK that ball from their hands when they contact it across the net and I track it right into my arms. I follow by watching the ball with my eyes right into my serve receive platform. Really Focusing on the ball keeps me from being surprised and moving at the last minute once that ball crosses the net to my side of the court. I am already visibly and mentally following that ball out of the server’s hands so by the time it gets to the volleyball net and then crosses to my side its easy for me to move my feet and get to position to make a great pass.
5. The final volleyball skill is to get into Early Positioning and then Get Stopped!
Don’t do two things at once. Don’t pass and run at the same time! Your passes usually won’t go to your setter BUT instead will go immediately over the net. Get to the spot First on the volleyball court where you see the ball is going to cross the net and land even if this means that you may only need a side step or two or may even have to run to get to a further spot away from you Get THERE first then GET STOPPED -get your Platform out- then make the pass. Make sure you do this in 2 separate movements.
So remember Get to Your Spot Quickly – Beat the ball there – Get Stopped – Make the Pass!
Coaching Girls Volleyball: Top 5 Ways Girls Volleyball Players Can Make Pepper Improve Their Game
Many girls volleyball players don’t know how to use the Pepper Warm up Drill as a way to improve their volleyball game. Below are 5 ways elite women volleyball players use “Pepper” as a way to play better volleyball.
1. In womens volleyball, Pepper is first used To Improve Ball Control.
2. Secondly, women volleyball players use Pepper to Improve their Serve Receive Technique.
In girl’s volleyball I believe that Pepper is the number one way for indoor players to improve their ball control…if they know how to do it. You have to be aware of why you are Peppering in the first place. If not, then it just becomes a way to raise your body temperature…some.
a. When YOU set the volleyball -whoever sets should be working on form and technique.
The Goal- the volleyball should go right to your partner without them taking more than one step in any direction to chase your ball.
b. When Your partner passes back-concentration should be on using excellent form for serve receive and free ball passing-especially now since this is an easy ball.
The Goal- first to pass or bump the ball high enough so she can hit the ball right back without taking more than one step. Secondly, bump setting practice for accuracy so each and every ball goes right back to above the hitters extended hitting arm.
c. When You hit. You hit a controlled 1/2 to 3/4 speed down ball right to your partner. In this instance you have a controlled situation in which to practice the finer points of your armswing. Concentrate -on “reaching” raising your elbow and hitting high while controlling the ball speed. Don’t hit by your ear just because there’s no net! Hit low in Pepper means you hit low in hitting warm ups and then in your girls volleyball game. Trust me-it all transfers. Your body is recording every movement you make it do-so pledge to yourself to do the movements right.
The Goal- To hit the spot you are aiming for-which in Pepper is right to your partner-so that she doesn’t have to move more than one step UNLESS you choose to mix up your attack and include a tip to your partner. This is highly recommended after you have improved your ball control.
d. Your partner digs-focus on being down in your defensive position before your partner hits the ball meaning by the time she makes contact. Because Pepper partners are relatively close together you will automatically be developing quick reflexes. Here is where you practice combining quick reflex with BALL CONTROL. React quickly…then control the ball. React quickly then c-o-n-t-r-o-l the ball.
The Goal- Learning to absorb a hard hit ball at a close distance and delivering that ball (softly, gently people) in control to your target without making them move more than one step. Fight to maintain control of the ball.
3. Women Volleyball players use Pepper to Increase Their Range in Defense.
Advanced girl’s volleyball players can challenge their partners (you both need to agree to make the drill work) by tipping the ball further and further out of reach – the more of these balls you get in pepper-the more you will get in the game. It all transfers. Or by hitting a 1/2 to 3/4 speed down ball a foot or 2 to the right or left of the defender will increase your range of harder hit defensive balls that you dig up around you.
4. In womens and girls volleyball Pepper helps players To Narrow Their Focus and Increase Concentration.
In girls volleyball games Pepper warm ups often take place in a crowded environment. Either with 25 teammates on either side of you, or near that net divider that separates the volleyball courts in a tournament, fans that walk up and down the aisles, team benches, believe it or not this is a great practice oportunity- to narrow your focus and concentration so that it doesn’t matter what happens around you …the world can come to an end but your focus is only on the volleyball.
5. Women Volleyball players use Pepper To Increase Their Reactions and Reduce Fear of the Ball.
As your ball control gets better then you and your Pepper partner should agree to challenge each other to make each other better players. When you get to the point where you are exchanging 10-12 pass,set,hit combinations in a row Stop and both of you commit to hitting harder at each other. About 3/4 the speed of your regularly hit spike-BUT YOUR GOAL is to still to work up to as many pass-set-hit exchanges as you can while Controlling the ball. Your digs should still be going right to each other.
Five Girls Volleyball Tips On How To Get The Varsity Volleyball Coach To Notice You!
If you are a freshman or a junior varsity volleyball player hoping to make your volleyball team, you may not be able to rely purely on your current physical talent to impress the varsity volleyball coach. To outsmart those upperclassmen girls who regularly play varsity volleyball here are a few tips that should help you gain an advantage and hopefully get the varsity volleyball coach to notice. You should just check out these tips and apply them to your next practice.
1. Get in the habit of being the first player ready for practice and the last to leave.
For girls volleyball practice I use to come to my High School gym one half hour before practice and lay in the middle of the gym and just visualize that the volleyball court was mine. Seriously I convinced myself that anything that happened on that court, any ball that came on my side I was personally going to be responsible for. Nothing was going to fall in defense and no one was going to dig my hits. I think something worked because we made it to the California State Championships for the first time my senior year.
I chose to to come early and/or stay late to exercise my mental skills but I also did it to practice serving and individual wall drills for setting and passing as well.
2. Your goal should be to become the most effective server on your girl’s volleyball team.
Read my article ”Girl’s Volleyball Tips: Top 5 Places to Serve After a Team Timeout” to learn how to become Your volleyball team’s most effective server.
3. This movie is not about girl’s volleyball but you still need to rent the DVD movie “Rudy” starring Sean Astin…Watch it …then adopt his “never quit” attitude. Period.
Okay, it’s a football movie–but it’s the best one you will ever see AND you’d be surprised how similar many of the conditioning drills in football are to the ones we do in girls club and womens college volleyball. Just watch the movie.
4. You should mentally prepare yourself to go after every ball in defense.
For your girls volleyball practice adopt the “Rudy” attitude in defense and make any ball in defense YOUR ball. Decide that nothing falls around you or in your immediate area. Take pride in TRYING to get every ball up so your team has another chance to play it and make a point or side out.
5. Become the backrow quarterback for your girl’s volleyball team.
Talk to your teammates before, during and after the game and give them valuable information about what you see happening. Learn to direct traffic by calling out plays you see developing. This isn’t difficult because many times a backrow player–if she’s concentrating–can see a play developing just like the front row player or sooner. So if you see the Right Front player sliding over to run the “X ” Don’t keep this information to yourself! Call it out “Watch the X” Watch number 15 coming around” Say it Loud enough so everyone can hear it.
If you see the fake “X” developing which is what alot of setters call after running the X “Call it out” out loud…”watch number 15 coming around for the fake X”. Let the blockers hear you, let your defense hear you…just commentate.
Secrets? There are no secrets on the court. Let your teammates know what to expect. If a player goes through the front row rotation and all the points she made were by wiping off the block or hitting cross court, the next time she rotates up to the left front you go up and out loud and tell your front row blockers in a loud voice “Hey that #15 the last time hit everything cross court. Be ready to block her cross court attack.”
Besides this being a very good way of “getting inside” your opponent’s head it lets your coach know that you are a smart volleyball player that is making yourself aware of what is going on in the game and is doing what it takes to help your team win.
Now here’s the million dollar question: How tall do you have to be a good backrow quarterback?
Answer: Size just doesn’t matter!
Remember the ball is in your court!

Volleyball Tips For Girls: Top 5 Reasons Why You May Have A Wimpy Serve
Smart volleyball players know that serving is the volleyball game’s “equalizer” because from start to finish you and only you control every aspect and especially the outcome of the volleyball serve. The best part is that it doesn’t matter how tall, how wide or how short you are, if you develop a tough serve that makes points consistently you are guaranteed to see regular playing time on the volleyball court.
1. My first volleyball serving tip: To improve your serve you need to mentally decide to attack with your serve.
A lot of volleyball players with inconsistent or ineffective serves need to first change their mind set about serving. You need to first change the way you think about serving a volleyball. For most champions, volleyball serving isn’t about just getting the ball over the net so the other team can start the play. On the contrary, you start “the play” with the serve meaning your serve needs to be used as the first “line of attack” you make against the opposing team. You need to think and be aggressive and learn to “attack” with your serve. This is a mental process first. Decide to be aggressive with your serve. Then in practice, you should practice making high velocity tough attack serves, not wimpy ones.
2. My second volleyball tip: Keep your elbow high, just like when you spike, in order to improve your serving accuracy.
One of the first things I look for when a player complains about serving into the volleyball net a lot, is how high they keep their elbow when they serve. It doesn’t matter whether you use a bow and arrow armswing or a simulation spike to serve the volleyball…(that’s what I call it) if you drop your elbow when you serve, your ball will rarely clear the net. Your elbow needs to be high …always above the level of your ear. Then you need to speed up your armwsing and reach.
3. My third tip is: A low toss or inconsistent toss will negatively affect your volleyball serving skill.
This is the second place I look to check for weak wimpy serves. If your toss is low then that means you have to go chase your ball, which knocks you into an off balanced position. Because the toss is low in order to recover and make something happen you usually lean forward…which forces you to drop your elbow, which means you contact the ball below the level of net and so the ball won’t clear the net. Or if one time you toss to the right of your front foot, then another time two feet over to the left you will never create a system for yourself so you can consistently serve tough.
To improve your serving skill it’s necessary to create a “ritual” where you toss the volleyball the same way every time you serve. I point my foot exactly in the direction of where I’m going to serve then with an open palmed left hand I toss the ball two feet above my head and one foot in front of my front foot. How do I know these measurements? Because at home or by myself I practiced my toss, just my toss for hundreds of reps. Two feet up, one foot in front. Let the volleyball drop without swinging at it to make sure it lands in front of the toe of your front foot. Why? This keeps your body balanced so all you have to do is transfer the weight from your back foot to your front foot, quicken your armswing and make solid contact with the ball.
4. My fourth tip: Facing your target will greatly improve your volleyball serving skill.
Some players think its really sneaky to try and fake out the serve receive by not showing where they are going to serve. On the contrary I say…let everybody know where you are going to serve. Face Your Target. I’m talking about the floater serve, here. Place everything that you have, your feet, hips, shoulders, tossed ball in the direction of where you plan to serve. Face that player or that space on the court and just let it Go! If ALL your energy is going in one direction you can create more force than if different parts of your body are going in different directions. If everything is all lined up in one direction and balanced then you can focus on one last element.
5. My last serving volleyball tip: Make solid contact with the volleyball.
If you don’t make solid contact right in the middle of the panels facing you then you probably won’t get that tough floater serve you are looking for. Contact on the sides gives the ball side spin and contacting the ball too low gives a back spin which is usually pretty easy for the opposing team to pass. In practice watching where you contact the ball helps you improve your ball contact which automatically helps to improve your volleyball serving skill.
Remember the volleyball is in your court!
