                                                1
PHYSICAL TESTING
Physical testing will take place upon arrival immediately following check-in. Testing will consist of 1Height and
Reach measurement, 2Vert testing, and 3Shuttle Run: all are detailed below.

   1. Height and Reach
      Athletes will stand with their back against the measuring tape and height will be recorded. They will
      then turn to either side so that the tape runs up the length of their body. Extend arm against the tape
      as high as possible while keeping both feet flat on the ground and the reach will be recorded.

   2. Vert
      Athletes will be given a Vert sensor for testing and it will be clipped to their waistbands. Each athlete
      will have two attempts at a block jump, and an approach jump. The highest vertical recording from
      each jump will be recorded.
      Block Jump: Beginning at the net in a ready position, the athlete will jump straight up and down as if
      blocking. There will be no “rocker” step or swing blocking footwork prior to the jump.
      Approach Jump: Athletes will begin off the net with enough room to take their full approach footwork.
      They will take a 3-step or 4-step approach to the net as if attacking and jump.

   3. Shuttle Run
      The shuttle run will consist of 3 marked lines including the 10’ line, the end line, and a line directly
      between the two (pictured below). Athletes will begin with their hand on the center line and one foot
      on each side. When ready they will sprint to either the end line or 10’ line to begin their series of
      touches. A total of 4 touches with their hand to the line between the 10’ line and end line need to be
      made before finishing back through the original center line for time. The best of two attempts will be
      recorded.                                   NET

For SETTERS (SET), the tryout will consist of Combined Positional Breakouts, Deep Court 4on4 play, and
 different phases of 6on6 play. All drills are explained in the next pages of the document and the USAV set

Combined Positional Breakouts
Setters will report to assigned courts for check-in and will be broken into groups. Groups will be placed on the
Middle Blocker (MB) attacking court(s) and the Outside Hitter (OH) attacking court(s). Both the MB and OH
courts will have their own set of drills and both courts will have Liberos (LIB) passing to target for setting.

Court coaches will set up each drill and explain what sets you are to be running and where on the court you
are to begin from. It’s important to review the charts below so that as you rotate between the MB and OH
courts, you will already have an idea of what will be asked of you.

Middle Blocker Attacking Court
   1.   Setting in front, “1” and “GAP” beginning from target
   2.   Setting in front, “1” and “GAP” beginning from right back defensive position and breaking to the net
   3.   Setting behind, “A” and “SLIDE” beginning from target
   4.   Setting behind, “A” and “SLIDE” beginning from right front and blocking the “OH”

Outside Hitter Attacking Court
   1.   Setting in front, “HUT”, or behind “5” beginning from target
   2.   Setting in front, “HUT”, beginning from right front and blocking the “OH”
   3.   Setting behind, “5”, beginning in right back defensive position and breaking to the net
   4.   Setting in front, behind, or back row, beginning from ro.1 serve receive set-up

Deep Court and 6v6 Phases
After the water break, Setters will report back to their evaluators to be divided again into groups for Deep
Court. Only SET and OH will be running Deep Court while MB and LIB are serving and passing on separate
courts.

The last stage of the tryout will be Situational 6v6 with three phases of specific setting scenarios. Coaches will
break all positions into groups for various courts during this time and they will rotate athlete positions as
needed. This includes movement from court to court mid-drill and athletes should be prepared to execute and
jump in immediately.

Deep Court
Deep Court will consist of 4 athletes per side with a coach-initiated ball. The side that wins the rally will stay on
and the side that loses will rotate off and a new 4 will replace them. SET will only be playing front row. OH will
be three across in the backrow hitting back row attacks only. SET can set any of the back-row options as well
as block attacks and hit any overpasses. SET are not allowed to dump.

Situational 6v6
During play, there will be a SIDE A and a SIDE B. There will be a total of 5 balls (1 serve and 4 alternating coach-
initiated balls) or a “ROUND” before a side will rotate. SIDE A will be the serving side and will rotate every
ROUND – 5 balls. SIDE B will rotate off and a new 6 will rotate on every 3 ROUNDS or every 15 balls.

   1. SET begins in right front and must force MB on the first ball of each new rally; not every ball. OH will be
      serving the first ball of SIDE A.
   2. SET begins in right back and must force a right side set on the first ball of each new rally; not every ball.
      SET on SIDE A will first serve and then step into right back for the rally and remaining 4 balls.
   3. SET begins in right front and must force back row on the first ball of each new rally; not every ball. MB
      will be serving the first ball of SIDE A.
