This competitive, game-oriented program focuses on the instructor starting a point feeding to the offensive team where the team's goal is to hit the ball over the net to their opponent in order to score points. Two teams of 3 or 4 players rotate in and out on offense and defense to create a fast-paced game of learning to chase down hard-to-reach balls and focusing on keeping the ball going across the net and in play (rallying the ball).
