Volleyball Basics: Learning Base and How to Rotate | Volleyball for Beginners

[@Angelica-lk7iw]

I never understood rotation until this video thank you

[@grifforama]

I still don't.

[@S373ndust]

@@grifforama My thoughts exactly. I appreciate her putting effort in....but this didn't really explain much I don't feel.

Thankyou for this resource! Team of 5th and 6th graders My first time coaching Your a life saver!

Based on what I watched and learned, I decided that I would not focus any player on a specific skill, i.e. setter, hitter. In my case, I felt it was still important for the players to learn and do all things in the game. I've tried to set up a defense by saying, "LF & RB are setters, RF & LB are hitters" but even then it's restricting players from setting if they're not LF or RB (in their minds). The MAJOR problem I have when I tell someone "you're the setter" is that the ball drops to the court because 4 people are waiting for the setter to run over and set it or don't attack it for the same reason. I'd like to see a video where you explain the solution to that problem....;). Any suggestions?

Worst

[@mocha6w68]

Polish everyone else receiving technique so they can bump the ball to the setter, so the setter will run less

[@dcchaos6409]

Tell the setter to yell “cover” when there’s a ball they can’t reach, then someone else can set. IMO all teams should have a backup setter for this. Normally the backup setter is the Libero

[@sof3098]

Tell them to yell help and then the backup setter can set or the other players can

Well done!

I am coaching at a Boys and Girls Club where due to the limited practice time and the wildly varying skill levels rotations are pretty much not an option. About the only rotation I have attempted is to designate a setter and rotate them in limited situations. I am also surprised to see the Middle Back being back during base with the outside backs moves up. While this is great for advanced players, I prefer the middle back to play up to cover the 10 ft line with the outside players being back. There is no way for beginners to cover the baseline by themselves. Am I missing something?

[@garymcbride340]

I played and understood rotation years ago initially setting through 3, progressing to setting through 2 then a single main setter. When learning the basics were were always taught that the middle back (6) position pushed up with 5 & 1 playing deeper on court. Has convention changed or are your positions not for setting through 3? As a returning older player and potential coach for my kids primary school, I’m a little confused about your deep 6 position.

Now I'm totally confused...😮‍💨

[@monicareigns2872]

I need a volleyball coach

[@paulmuli1457]

Incase of the start of the first rally in a match, if the opponents had the first service and we get the ball for the first time, do we rotate?

[@ErinHealer]

yes, you rotate at that point

[@morganbraemer1959]

Where’s the other rotations???

[@shiva1742]

This is all too verbal. You need a board to move pieces around on to represent the different players.

[@Hero4fun77]

Agree. I'm still confuse.

[@emailSethTurner]

I agree too. Without seeing how the players shift this is hard to conceptualize. Then again, I am a visual learner.
