If the Spiker is Within One Meter of the Net, the Blocker Should Jump When the Spiker’s Hands Pass Upward In Front of Her Face

Volleyball: Timing Cues for Blocking

A simple timing error is one of the most common problems in the volleyball block. You'll often see blockers leave the floor at the same time as the spiker, only to watch the spike pass over their hands because they're already falling as the ball approaches the net. In fact, blockers should not jump at the same time as the spiker—they should delay a split second.

Why Blockers Should Delay their Jump

It's only logical: spikers usually contact the ball at the apex of their jump, but it If the Spiker is More Than One Meter From the Net, the Blocker Should Jump When the Spiker’s Hand First Moves Towards the Ball takes time for the ball to travel from the spiker's hand to the net. If your blockers jump at the same time as the spiker, they'll be falling by the time the ball reaches the contact area near the net. By delaying momentarily when the spiker jumps, your blockers will be at the apex of their jump when they contact the ball.

Timing Cue

Here are two cues that will help your blockers time their jump correctly. If the spiker is within one meter of the net, your blockers should jump when the spiker's hand passes upward in front of the spiker's face on his/her ascent. If the spiker is farther than one meter away from the net, your blockers should jump when they see the spiker's arm begins its movement towards the Blockers Need Not Jump as High as the Spiker

Blockers Need Not Jump as High

Your players may feel that they are jumping too late, but remind them that the spike will be traveling downwards, so the blocker does not need to jump as high as the spiker in order to block the ball.
