Clinician: Tod Mattox, head volleyball coach at Bishop High School

Purpose: To have players practice and master tipping both straight ahead and left or right.

How it Works: Have two players tip to each other across the net, tossing the ball for themselves every time. Once they have they can do so comfortably, have them tip either left or right and make their partner move to catch the ball. Remember to have them disguise their tip for as long as possible by maintaining a full, convincing arm swing every time.

Requirements: A full court, at least two players and one ball
