How to position yourself PERFECTLY in Defense!

Here we discuss defensive release positions for each defender based on the type of the attack. We cover the location of the release, ideal body position and the strategy behind the release positions. Volleyball is built on concepts like "defense release" so we put ourselves in a great position so we can read and be athletic.

[@fourathletes4]

Of course. Have some of those already in the works!

Awesome stuff... My 7th grade team (only had 10 try out so kept all 10) isn't the most skilled but going to use this for defense for basic defense

I always have my club & collegiate team hit deep into the court to the right or left of the middle back defender. There is only 1 defender in the last 10 feet of the court. Scoring becomes easier when you realize the defender can’t possibly cover the entire last 1/3 of the court by themselves.

[@umrobe62]

Well sure, but the blockers are supposed to be taking away those parts of the court. If the block is doing a bad job, it usually doesn't matter what the backcourt players are doing.

Wooo!

Marveeeelessssssssssssss🎉

[@fourathletes4]

Haha thanks!

So, if the setter is in the front row, how do the 3 back row players position themselves in free ball? Does opposite prepare to hit from back row and the other 2 still split the court?

[@fourathletes4]

The backrow wouldn’t move if the setters front row except if you have a big D ball presence. Then z6 and z5 defenders would rotate normally so the backrow right side could swing out and get ready to hit.

[@sjsupa]

@@fourathletes4 get it. Thanks.
