How long should a club volleyball practice be?

Ninety minutes is the default. Use five blocks so warm-up, two skill segments, game-like play, and closeout each get a clock. Longer than two hours usually means extra standing around.

What is in this 90-minute volleyball practice plan?

Pepper, pass-and-freeze, wall serving, butterfly, short-court triples, and Columbus. Every drill has setup, steps, and coaching cues so you can run it without rewriting the whiteboard.

Is 90 minutes enough for serve and pass?

Yes if first contact is the theme. This plan spends the middle blocks on serving and serve receive, then a scored game. Add hitting only after pass quality holds.
