Welcome to this new format!

We are exploring new means to share knowledge and learn from each other.

As explained during our 1st lesson, we are co-constructing lessons together so that learning is meaningful and authentic for you.

Over the next few months, I will add in videos as a form of pre/post learning. I will also provide constructive feedback for your submitted videos of your learning. Yes, you need to submit videos of you performing the tasks assigned during lessons.

My comments are not criticisms but rather, a formative feedback for all of us to become better in the game

The Bump (Part 1)

The bump, as known as a pass, is the most basic and essential skill in volleyball. The bump is used to hit a ball that is below the head, and is typically used as the first touch to receive a serve or to receive a pass from teammates.

In order to be successful in this sport, you must know the basics, and bumping is the most important skill.

Please go through the video.

Refer to the video for:

1. The correct arm postures,

2. How our legs are positioned in a ready stance before we bump the ball.

3. Calling out when receving the ball.
