How To HIT A Volleyball ⎮ For Beginners!

It's finally here! The first part of hitter's segment! We will be working on our volleyball approach and learning our footwork to take those first couples of steps! I have been a volleyball spiker for a long time and it's a passion of mine! I am so excited to teach you how to spike!
When learning your volleyball approach we must first learn about the type of approach, the "three-step approach" and how to properly do it.
The first part of our segment will be learning those three steps as we start working on our hitter's approach. Let's start learning how to spike that volleyball!

KoKo can you do a video for how to control passes so they can get to the setter?

[@whatsherfaceva1268]

Kui if this is to any help, point your shoulders and hips to the setter and pop the ball. Don’t lean forward, but be in position and “squat” down a bit. (It’s not really a squat, just get a little lower than your normal stance). When you hit the ball, don’t let your arms pass your shoulders. Stand up and hold out your arm so that it’s completely straight. That’s where your arms should be when you make contact with the ball. By “pop” the ball, I mean don’t hit it with all of your power. Just let it your “platform” and pop it a little bit (if that makes any sense. Hopes this helps.)

[@joeowens7760]

I know this is a few years old but I'm about to go play volleyball for fun and wanted to know how to play beforehand. It's so much like skateboarding when it comes to the small important "steps" literally, and I was able to coorilate my skateboarding to this. Thanks!

[@r24eitak]

I had tryouts a month ago and we only have two games left. My friend brought me to tryouts for fun and I knew NOTHING about volleyball. Not a thing. I made the team! She didn’t though. In the first week I mastered my underhand serves! The next week my couch said to start practicing my overhands. I master that too. I started looking up tips and all that, then I found your channel. It helped soooo much! Now I know my steps. I’ve been trying to learn spiking but I’m kinda horriable at it. Hehe, anyways, thank you so much for this Coach KoKo!!

[@skatto488]

Oml koko your literally always there for me!! I practiced spiking yesterday but couldnt it it with the power I wanted to because of my timing, thank you so much!!

[@GrishataG]

I'm practicing to be a setter and lm watching this so l know what my spikers are thinking and doing so l can utilize it. Im trying my best. I practiced on a team for 6 months but l didnt like it there so l joined the school team and after season ended left and now l practice alone and play for fun.

[@Ihavepinkhairrn]

Guys, I just want to remind you, if you are on a team, listen to your coach and there are different club variations. By this I mean depending where you play and/or who you play for, they May teach the approach differently. This is a very useful video, especially for beginners, but some of the coaches may teach a 4 step or even a five step approach. (I have never had a coach teach the 5 step approach, but I’m like 80% sure it exists) a lot of coaches teach a 3 approach though so honestly it my not matter as long as u get those kills if u know what I’m saying

[@mariahisanL]

Abby Gabe yes you really need knee pads to dive for the ball because without them you get burns and the spandex is up too you also the shoes it makes you like not fall or slip so I recommend getting shoes

[@ashenight3333]

I LOVE YOU!

[@cartivroom]

do you recommend the three step approach or four?

[@Ihavepinkhairrn]

The four step approach is pretty similar to the 3 step. I personally was taught the three step but when I got more advanced a four step, but I think as long as you are getting the momentum and hitting it in (and possibly getting kills) it does not matter. I’ve seen people do both at all levels. I suggest just doing the approach your coach teaches. I think you should always start out with a 3 step though just because it is (naturally) less complicated. With the 4 step I was taught, the first step is barely even a step. You have your heel down and your toe pointing to the sky and you just put it flat on the ground. That’s all the extra step is. So right left right left. I personally like the three step approach best with a big first step and then two smaller steps. There is also a two step approach. I usually see older people (like middle age +) do this approach more often than anyone else but when they do it, it is so scary
