After a brief instruction from the sports leader on the top pass, the participants perform the following exercises in teams of two:
- Throw the volleyball to each other inaccurately (too short, too long, etc.) Partner must catch the ball over their head before it falls to the floor.
- Pass the ball to each other with the top pass; in between, pass the ball to yourself once each time.
- Top pass to partner A, partner A passes the ball up to himself several times (juggling) while B quickly touches A's shoes and returns to his place. Now he receives an upper pass and must juggle the ball until A has touched his shoes, etc.
- Direct upper pass in pairs. Play together with the most accurate passes possible.
