Serving 3 – 10 to 1/6/5
Testing Process
Coach sets up cones to mark off the 1/6/5 court locations on the receiving side of the court. Athlete must serve 3 in a row to position 5, three in a row to position 6, and then three in a row to position 1. Athlete is allowed one missed serve during the process. A second missed serve returns them to the beginning of the challenge.
Once the athlete successfully completes three serves to each location (1/6/5), the athlete then calls the coach over. The coach provides a location to serve (1, 6, or 5) and the athlete must serve the location on the first try. If the athlete fails the final serve, they must return to the beginning.
