Volleyball Scheme of Work (KS4)

This resource includes:

• To be able to add topspin to overhead serves, serving with more power and accuracy than previously.
• Students should be able to perform more advanced defensive techniques, such as the sprawl and also use more advanced setting techniques to turn inaccurate passes into good attacking opportunities for back as well as front court players.
• Students should understand the rules governing attacks from backcourt and should be able to spike legally and accurately from behind the attack line.
• The HELP position should be evident in games and students should be covering attacking teammates, anticipating a block from the opposing defence.
• Teams will change from transition to attack formations during rallies and students will umpire all games.
• Also, throughout the phases students are constantly asked how to outwit opponents; evaluate performances; analyse strengths and weaknesses; whilst developing, adapting and refining skills, strategies and tactics to produce high levels of performances and high quality techniques.
