Period 2 Team Games

Due Date: Tuesday, November 22nd

We are starting our second week of volleyball and I thought our first week went well. I hope it was obvious to you that individual skills in volleyball are important to make the game more enjoyable. I want you to evaluate yourself and your abilities. For your blog this week, let me know what skill in particular you need to work on and what you plan on doing to improve that skill.

i need to improve on my bumping, and the way am going to improve it is to get under the ball faster and hit it on my forearm and not with the fist.

Serving and Blocking; for serving i will serve to my teammates before games and for blocking i will carefully watch the ball to know when to jump.

The skill I need to improve on is setting the ball. I need to ensure that I don't hold the ball when I do this. The only way to improve this is by practicing often. I will try to take advantage of our class time to practice this new skill.

Serving and bumping; To better my serving i need to practice form and fundamentals. Then i can go for placement. To ensure better bumping i need to react to the ball faster and get under the ball in time to position my hands in the ideal position to bump the ball with accuracy.

I need to improve my serving. I shall improve this skill by practicing consistently during the warm-up. I will also take note of the proper position by watching others who are better at serving than I.

I need to improve my bumping the problem i have is that i can't direct the ball where i want it to go as well as i would like to. The way i can fix that is by facing where i want to bump and get under the balland hit it on my forearm with out swinging my arm. Also every day in gym warming up with practicing the bump.

I need to improve my setting by getting under the ball and following through outwards. I can also try to direct it towards a teammate

I need to improve on my spiking. To do this I need to practice and make sure i get above the ball and hit it down so it doesn't go too far and go out.

I think I am decent at bumping, setting, and spiking. My serve, however, still needs a lot of work. To improve, I'll try to continuously serve from below the waist.

I need to work on setting the ball. I need to move quicker to get under the ball and make sure I am using the correct form. And when I set the ball, I need to practice setting it high and to a teammate. I need to practice my accuracy.

I need to improve on bumping the ball and getting prepared to know where the ball is going so that I can hit the ball with a set or a bump. I will improve bumping the ball by doing so before each game and bumping it to my teammates.

I need to work on setting the volleyball. I could work on this by practicing my follow through outwords, not foward. Also, I could practice putting more force into my set to make it go a bit more higher to make it easier to spike

I need to work on letting ball go out cause i tend to hit the ball that are going out, or not hit them ball when it's in. I'll watch the ball more carefully.

one skill in particualr i need to work on is my set. I plan on fixing my set by having better form when setting and bending my knees to get more power to push the ball upwards.

I gotta get my team to work harder! When i'm not yelling at them they goof around to much than we end up losing sometimes, personally i need to actually move around more rather than just stand in the front and spike it...
