MIDDLES! Don't do THIS when hitting a '1'

[@jyugwat2952]

The parallel ball path for timing and L spacing is a great explanation. Can’t wait to try this out with my setters with this new mindset.

[@fourathletes4]

Let us know how it goes! Good luck!

Waiting for the pass to be even with your body to start your approach is great insight. Thanks again, your videos are always so informative and easy to follow.

[@fourathletes4]

Thanks! Appreciate it 💪

Great video. Love the "L" spacing visual. That one's going right into my coaching toolbox.

[@fourathletes4]

One of our favorites too!

This is such a great video. As a middle I learned quite a lot!

[@fourathletes4]

Thanks! Good luck 💪

Wow! Great video for middles, I have seen far too few of these (seems like outside gets all the love), thank you!!

[@fourathletes4]

Gotta show love to those middles haha

Favourite volleyball YT channel by far. Great examples, clear videos (love the extra editing 2:53) and godlike tips (maintaining the "L").

[@fourathletes4]

Thanks! Appreciate the support 🙌

Hey! Can you do an opposite hitter approach/hitting tutorial?

[@fourathletes4]

Great idea! We'll get to work!

[@jasonplaysvolleyball]

What should the setter do if he or she is setting the 1 ball but they’re a few feet off the net? Do we push the ball on a slight angle towards the net or just set the one from wherever we are?

[@fourathletes4]

The higher levels will run a true 1 with the L up to 7 feet. The attackers will have heavier arms to still beat the block and defense. Any pass more off the net will likely turn into the middle 'audibling' to the 3, back 1 or slide. Lower levels may try to get the setter to help the hitter by pushing the ball at the slight angle. DEFINITELY want to stay away from getting too close to the net and setter OR so inconsistent that the setter doesn't really know where the middle is and kind of guesses with each set.
