For more advanced players and teams, the following drills are included. The first of these shown in Figure #41 encourages the spiker to move quickly—laterally first and then straight in toward the net. The low or quick set can be used to develop a fast-hitting attack. The inclusion of the blockers provides for defensive practice at the same time.

A variation of this is useful in building deception into the attack (Figure #42). The setter can either set forward to the spiker on the left or give the other spiker a quick set over his head.

The drill in Figure #43 is used to develop the "first set" attack which is used by many foreign teams. It also helps the spikers learn to hit sets originating from the back court. The player setting the ball should move to various positions in the center and back areas of the court.
