Great beginner training aid
This is an excellent training aid for those just learning to the BASIC overhand serve. Unless the player is tall or has long arms, the tether is a good length for making sure the ball does not get tossed too high (toss should be about 1 volleyball above where the player will hit it, not several feet in the air which is a common bad habit most learn). Because the tether isn't overly long, it helps the player increase the velocity of the serving hand which improves distance and speed of the ball.

Product Description
The Volleyball Pal is a useful device that allows for hours of practice without the need of another person. It consists of a Velcro strap that secures around the waist, a neoprene pouch that holds the Volleyball, and an elastic cord connecting the waist strap to the ball pouch. The smooth action of the elastic cord guides the ball back to the player every time. Use the Volleyball Pal to practice serving tosses or arm swing technique without ever having to chase a ball!

Best for beginner to intermediate players
This training aid is workable. It allows my daughter to practice serving without someone chasing the ball. We had a few problems to workout at the start but she is able to use it. She is an intermediate player and she needs to throw the ball too high for the tether. I would think the tether should be a little longer, maybe another 3 feet. With the tether attached around her waist, if she throws the ball too high, the tether pulls it down. I joked and said she should tether it around her neck. We worked around that problem by attaching the tether to the net of a basketball hoop. By doing that she can even practice jump serves. Jump serves will be limited as she gets better unless we extend the tether another 3 to 6 ft.The other problem we have is the ball starts to come out of the holder after about 25 hits and needs to be reinserted. Could use more Velcro for a better fit.I would rate this aid 5 stars for a beginning player needing to practice serves, 4 for...
