SCIENCE OF MOTOR LEARNING 2 Identifying and Measuring Target Behaviours Indicative of Positive Near Transfer. 1. Description of skill The skill I have chosen to look at is the underarm serve in the game of volleyball. Goal of the movement The main goal of the server is to consistently serve the ball into the opponent’s court as often as possible. Also being accurate and hitting with varied amounts of power are important in a good volleyball serve. Basic action required There are three main actions in the volleyball serve, the preparation, execution and follow through. In the preparation phase, the ball should be at waist level, shoulders square to net and eyes on the ball. The execution requires the person to allow the ball to drop before swinging the arm, weight transfer with ball contact and the ball should be contacted just below the centre back heel of the hand.
