4-Square Volleyball
Group Size: Large group (10 or more)
• Review how to bump, set, and serve.
• One player stands on each of the four corners of the play area (there should
be a total of four in the square).
• The rest of the players line up near the play area in a single line.
• Review how to rotate in and out of the playing area (the same as in four
square.)
Set Up:
Use a painted four square area or divide a large square into equal four
sections.
Play begins with one player serving from his/her corner and the serve can be to
any of the other three players. Each player gets one attempt to set or bump
the ball to another player without the ball hitting the ground. If the player
misses or hits the ball out of bounds then they returns to the end of the line.
Play re-starts with a serve.
Variations:
Team Four Square Volleyball: use a large 4-square (approximately 24’ x 24’)
and place three to four on a team, each team gets a square. Each team gets a
maximum of three hits to return the ball to another square.
