Wordle and Serving Challenges

volleyball for-coaches

My daily Wordle habit reminds me of a challenge/game from my volleyball coaching days. After a short service practice (2 minutes), line everyone up to serve from one side at a target on the other. Regular targets were 1) a hula-hoop in the plane of the net and 2) me sitting on the other side of the court. Players serve one at a time and get one chance. Make it very clear that each server gets one and only one attempt. Enforce it.

This was a favorite. Ex-professional-players-now-coaches became visibly frustrated when not allowed a second chance. Some took another anyway.
