What is the LAB
The Lab is the practical training environment of The Volleyball Project.
It’s where players take what they know and apply it under pressure, in structured, game-based situations.
Training focuses on building skills that are not just technically correct, but reliable in real matches.
The goal is simple: improve how you move, think, and perform within the game.
who is it for
The Lab is designed for competitive players who want to improve their performance beyond standard training.
It is not for beginners.
Players entering the program are expected to have a foundation in the game and be ready to refine how they make decisions, move, and execute under pressure.
Typically:
-
18+ athletes
-
CVL or equivalent level
-
Players looking to transition toward higher competition

Players don’t just train skills, they go through a guided process that builds understanding, application, and consistency.
Sessions:
Technical Work
Refining movement, positioning, and execution fundamentals.
Constraints & Controlled Drills
Designing situations that remove shortcuts and reinforce correct habits.
Game-Based Application
Applying skills in realistic, decision-driven environments.
Performance Feedback
Clear, measurable feedback to track improvement over time
