The floater serve in volleyball, whether standing or jumping is one of the best serves to use to score points from the service line.

What's the floater serve?

The floater serve, when practiced and done correctly, is used by top high school, collegiate, pro indoor and beach volleyball players to score points consistently.

The floater is popular because if contacted in the right spot, the ball will dip, float and move as it travels across the net. 



Your Toss - Keep It In Front of Your Hitting Arm ..

Watch Cass work on serving line. . .

If you’re having serving problems be sure to check what’s going on with your tossing form. . .

Look to create a routine when you serve. But your routine needs to help you maintain control of your body parts. . .

Its not a good sign if you’re falling all over the place before/after you contact the ball.

The more you can control your body parts the better you will control the ball. .



When you learn how to serve a volleyball, even though it's your hand that makes contact with the ball,

the correct positioning of your feet

the movement of your core and lower body working together

a consistent volleyball serve toss and

where your hand contacts the ball when serving are four things that will help determine how successful your overhand serve is.
