Become THE BEST Opposite | Everything You Need to Know

[@Slychek]

Love the video. Blocking, Spiking, and my favorite: Serving. All the best opposites possess these skills. Working on my defense to become the ultimate Opposite.

Good👍

Having just started playing team volleyball as a 162cm opposite this totally helped me to develop a better mentality to train more and play harder. Thank you very much!

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Great👍

[@hvdz6301]

I relate a lot, im 163 cm with a 277 cm reach, i only play opposite since i rarely get sets I usually receive and block

It is really hard finding tips as a left handed opposite but I found this really helpful to get better

[@VolleyCountrycom]

👍

[@fantic_rebel4222]

as someone who started playing as a middle in junior high and just now deciding to start my journey as an opposite in high school this was really helpful. thank you

[@steps3426]

i am 6'4ish and 18 y/o been playing volleyball for 1 entire year as middle blocker, its like the only position i ever played. Unfortunately i dont think i will be growing much more than this. I cant stop thinking that i am wasting my time in this position, is just that i am a bit taller everyone else in my team. Its feels super good to play middle, but i dont think i will be able to go further in volleyball just staying like that. Now i really want to try and start play opposite or outside, but is really hard to escape now that i established my base as a middle blocker in my team.

[@VolleyCountrycom]

I understand and it is not always easy to change position. Speak with your coach about your idea to become opposite or outside hittet👍 From my own experience it is easier to change from outside hitter to opposite, so you can take it to consideration if you want to try these two positions😉

[@membah9503]

I’ve played at an international level but it’s always great to listen to professional tips! Thanks for the video

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Great & thanks👍😉

[@spadesnothere3173]

I was kind of just placed as an Opposite in a scrimmage and its the only thing I've played so I kind of just stuck with it lol this video made me feel more confident with my plays and that it's ok to mess up :)

[@TadalaZulu]

Great video just started playing team volleyball and i really wanna establish that position as my own any tips on how be more effective from the back row and line shot attacks

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Thanks👍 and good luck in your volleyball journey💪

[@LucasPhYoutube]

Hi, great vid again! I have a question... I've been struggling with my Spiking timing can you maybe explain me how I can maybe fix that? Everyone tells me I start to run too early and when I try to run a bit later i end up running to late... Please help😭👍🏐

[@VolleyCountrycom]

I made video about timing, just search it😉

[@LucasPhYoutube]

@@VolleyCountrycom Do you mean "Improve timing for High Sets" i can't even time normal Sets unfortunately...

[@youtubeyt5694]

@@LucasPhKZbin it'll come with time, youll get your timing down once you get enough reps Also timing is different with every position so your timing will probably be easier for some than others

You can make a video like this for outside hitter, I'm lefty opposite and I want play like outside hitter

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Sure, I will do similar video for outside hitters👍

[@tonchrysoprase8654]

Bonus points for starting with Grozer. What a beast.

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Yes💪

[@davorpantoja8726]

Hi Jiri, first of all your videos are reslly good and useful, thank you for all of them. I am a middle blocker but mostly because of a team need rather than personal choice and I really love spiking much more than I love blocking. I've been considering switching positions from middle blocker to opposite hitter. I have a good vertical jump and attack. What are your thought on this? Thank you.

[@VolleyCountrycom]

You can try to change position, I started as opposite and then played OH👍😉

[@davorpantoja8726]

@@VolleyCountrycom Thanks! I'm currently recovering from a shoulder injury. I will definetly try it once I return to the court.

[@Nfs377]

How to upgrade our spiking ? My wrist is not working properly as it not moving fast and hand is not straight while jump to the high reach. Hand doesnt swing properly while spiking . Plzz help 😔

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Check my video about ulmimate spiking technique, it will help you👍

[@aleatheltrashcan478]

Is it better to take your approach from outside or inside the court as a right handed opposite?

[@VolleyCountrycom]

See my podcast w/ Paul Buchegger, he will answer your questions😉👍

[@goomy6502]

I'm 15 years old and 167 cm with 278cm reach I really can't spike from right side because it feels so unnatural. Hitting from left side is so much easier because i just face the setter while doing my footwork but from right it feels weird to just facing forward

[@VolleyCountrycom]

It is normal😀 Most right handed spikers have problem with attacking from right side😉 I will make a vdeo about it👍

[@ashhes1944]

Coach Im 5'8ish and have a 9'8 reach am I jumping high enough or should I work on it more.

[@VolleyCountrycom]

You can always jump more👍😉

[@DamnDaniel25178]

I have been moved from middle block to opposite in my middle school volleyball and I’m 6 foot 3 do you have any more tips for me that I could use

[@VolleyCountrycom]

See my videos for opposites😉👍

[@DamnDaniel25178]

This video was a lot of help do you have any video on how to get a consistent jump serve

[@VolleyCountrycom]

@@DamnDaniel25178 yes, search youtube😉👍

Hey yo just would to say thanks for the video, the other day I play my first game as a opposite and my coach is going to play me there all the time now

[@VolleyCountrycom]

@@DamnDaniel25178 great👍

[@erickinsano904]

is 182cm tall enough to play opposite?

[@VolleyCountrycom]

It can be enough, depends on competition😉👍

[@saitamgrg1600]

Please like this video for outside hitter also😊

Me trying to be a really good opposite at 178 cm watching this. In attacking, whenever there's a really strong block infront of me, I tend to swipe it off the block or tip it behind them and in service, it varies, but still have a long way to go HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

[@victorelindal1767]

[@sprenzymusic1704]

I'm a 5'7 lefty, no way I'm ever gonna be an oppo cause no one would want me

[@VolleyCountrycom]

Never say never until you try all what you can😉

[@ryoon1761]

being a lefty as an opposite hitter is a huge advantage actually

[@maybeetlexd]

I am 5’7 and i am an oppo on my team

[@pink6829]

The thumbnail bruh 😭 ty for this video but the guys junk is allllll out in the thumbnail 💀

[@domcexl1259]

Do you think 182 cm is enough for an opposite hitter?

[@VolleyCountrycom]

It can be enough👍 You need good vertical jump and very good attacking technique😉
