What players are learning

Learn to choose a hitter based on what the block is doing.

01

Set it up

  1. Live play with a real block on the other side.
  2. A full front row available.
02

Run the drill

  1. The setter distributes based on the block's position.
  2. The coach freezes play and asks why that hitter was chosen.
  3. Track kills by set choice, not by hitter.
03

What to say

  • Set to where the block is not.
  • Look before you set.
  • Do not feed the same hitter every ball.
04

How to score it

Track kill percentage by set choice, not by hitter.

05

Make it harder

  1. Restrict the setter — cannot set the same hitter twice in a row.
