One of the keys to success on the volleyball court is chemistry! Building camaraderie is important to building a great team that collaborates and understands that they are all in this together. There are several team building activities that your volleyball team can do together to ensure you build that team spirit. 

Team bonding outings, team building games, and simply being together on the trip there can help you do just that.  Here we share a few of the best volleyball team building activities for your crew!

Volleyball Team Building Activities

The Human Knot Game

With teammates standing in a tight circle, ask each one to grab the hands of two other teammates. They can choose anyone other than the person standing directly to their left or right. Once everyone is holding on, they must untangle the knot they’ve built while still holding hands. Check out this tutorial on how to play!

An Evening Out

Teammates join together for a night or afternoon out enjoying an event or a game such as a NBA, NFL, NHL, NBA, or NCAA game.

Scavenger Hunt

Create a scavenger hunt for teen volleyball teams and let them put their heads together to discover a huge surprise.

Pictionary or Charades

These are great bonding games for groups to team up and laugh together as they figure out the answers.

Paintball

Divide your team into two groups and let them have a blast seeing who can claim top paintball team!

Your Travel Time

Traveling to and from these team-building activities can be a great time for bonding. Have a singalong or play a travel game and ask them to put the devices away for the trip.

Craft Time

Have your team make personalized jerseys, posters, or banners for their team. It’s a fun way to build team spirit and show their love for their team. Painting sessions are also a fun way to bond and get creative.

Catch a Volleyball Match

Check out the competition and college teams to see what others are doing on the court.
