Volleyball
The jumping and reactive skills needed by volleyball players can be enhanced by the testing and training protocols offered by APT. The versatility of the testing component allows the player to test different variations of similar skill sets, which results in very specific drills to develop the subtle differences in performance. Some examples are:
Vertical Jump: The standard measure of jumping ability.
Approach Jump: A measure of jumping ability relevant to the approach and spike skill set.
Shuffle Jump: Combining the reactive movement to a visual stimulus with the vertical block jump after reaction.
Quick Jump Drill: Measures the number and height of jumps in a set period of time, including both contact time and flight time.
Dig Reactive Drill: Measures the reactive time of a defensive player to arrive at a point in dig position.
VIDEO OPTION: At all APT Events participants will be offered the opportunity to purchase video files of their performance in specific drills. Videos will be labeled with the athlete’s name and will include split times and final times for the selected drills. These videos can be uploaded to the APT Game Improvement Center for those athletes wishing to have their performance analyzed online by our team of experts.
