What is the hardest skill in volleyball?
As a coach who has been disappointed by the lack of discipline in forearm passing. I would say that THAT is the hardest skill. So Many people lack the control and get off “OK” passes, then they move on. Passing is one of the most basic skills, yet so few master it. Many of you may completely disagree with me but, can you pass 50 out of 100 varied speed balls to a target and have them catch it right above their head without moving? That’s 50% and that’s average, but I challenge any of you, that say you know how to pass the ball well, to do this. You should be at 65% or better to consider yourself an excellent passer. This is due to many coaches moving on to other skills before they should, because kids want to play games before they master the basic skills and they, in a way, pressure the coaches because coaches are afraid of the kids not having fun and ditching the sport. Every volleyball skill is suspect because of this, but passing is at the core of the problem, especially in the men
