I’m really thankful for your channel. My volleyball team is just a club, we play in the same court as the basketball and badminton teams, most of us play by being self taught became of the fact that we don’t have enough teachers and we can’t afford for a coach. Because of that our captain and vice captain(me) are the only people that help out with teaching the club. but ever since i found this channel and it helped us improve in many ways. Thank you so much😄

[@itzyn8380]

Update: We finally have our own court, I found us a coach and I manage to recruit more members😄

[@SohannaVball]

[@ordergaming7816]

Nice 👌

[@viviennex8683]

Do you have any tips for beginners? I've recently been into volleyball and today I'm going into tryouts and have little experience, I've been watching videos but' I'm still nervous😓 I'd love some advice from you! I'll be leaving for tryouts soon so I'll take the advice if I don't make the team.❤

[@ferretarmy3066]

personal Practice, practice everyday, test out each position during personal practice. Watch videos, get some friends to play with you, drink water, stay hydrated, memorize each position :D Good luck!

[@yakuza8056]

What happens to the libero once he is rotating from 5 to 4? I know they cant be on the front line so would they be switched out with someone else?

[@SohannaVball]

In most cases, when players are assigned a position like a libero, they don't rotate.

[@Lju789]

So when you rotate , do you change roles as well? Like if ur a Libero when u rotate do u play an outside hitter?

[@urfavmimi04]

are any of these positions different or more difficult if your left righted or does it not matter?

[@galileaperez3487]

I thought the OH was DS and RH the setter,and the left and right outsides where blockers.......????? I'm confused 😕

[@SohannaVball]

Yes, they can all block but it depends on the formation. Ex. some teams might only double block where only the setter and middle blocker would block.

[@federicbarnuevo235]

Hehe you say, example I'm the libero so I can't hit the ball can i have a example?Thank you

[@aliviaplaysvr5423]

Hi I’m an upcoming seventh grader whos playing volleyball! I have been playing volleyball for a couple weeks now but I’m still confused. I have my upcoming came on September 3rd and I’m confused by one thing? How do you know if it’s out when ur chasing for the ball are you aloud to go outside the line and get the ball when it’s still in the air?

[@mayafhevh256]

if you know it’s going to land out of bounds DONT HIT IT. it will hit the ground and be your point. However if you hit the ball it is still in game

[@kawcei]

[@dalo8977]

haii so i have a question :) i am 12 and i’m going to 7th grade (middle school) i am planning to start on the school team, i’ve never really had experience but played a little in 5th grade (not 6th cause covid), i’d like to think i’m good at volleyball do you think i have a good chance of getting on the team?

[@asiaberry7485]

I’m in like the same situation and you have a very high chance of getting in,but just remember you don’t have to be the best on the team.Just know the basics and be a team player,know how to take criticism,and be vocal,then you should be good!Best of luck to you!

[@shaniaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa3309]

I am 12 and in 7th grade aswell! And all of me and my friends made the team, it was quite easy considering it being middle school so yes I think you have a good chance :D

[@aniyaaa4465]

Unless they have been doing it for years a lot of people in middle school won’t really know what to do either so I think u have a good chance

[@oliviakelly6497]

Hi! I start 8th grade volleyball tomorrow and I have a question. I know i should probably know this by now but I’m kinda confused. When each player rotates to the right, do their positions change too? For example, if you were a setter would you then become a rightside hitter? Sorry if I sound dumb

[@NANI-bg1ds]

If it's social volleyball then most likely yes (at least from my experience). If it's a match where 1 or 2 people are a Setter, they will always be a Setter.

[@oliviakelly6497]

@@NANI-bg1ds THANK YOU!! Helps a lot:)

[@itz_addison0453]

For the setter what does it mean by usually gets second ball and what does the setter do if they’re in charge of offense?

[@SohannaVball]

The first contact is usually a player passing the ball to the setter, so the setter volleying to the hitter would be second contact. A setter in charge of offense means that they need to communicate with their team of who the set will go to (outside, left-side, or right-side hitter). This gives the other teammates time to prepare for the third contact.

[@frenchfries6]

Question! When you rotate, do you keep your role or does it change with your spot?

[@c0smixsstarlight]

Yes, you do switch roles unless u are a libero. There is an exception with libero because they dont rotate

[@luckyfarru]

can u create a video on 10ft hit line rule; a) is that the backrow player should jump beyond 10 ft to hit ball above net but (b) backrow can hit under 10ft, but ball must be below net?

[@SohannaVball]

In most cases the back row players can not jump and hit in front of the attack line.

[@wedontneedpermissiontodanc9377]

Question can u set over the net, or does it have to be passed to one of the rh or lh?

[@SohannaVball]

In some levels of volleyball setting off a serve is not allowed, but otherwise it's fine.

[@fruity8019]

I’m 12 and I wanted to start volleyball for my school is it too late tryouts are next week should I go? I don’t know much about it but it looks fun

[@SohannaVball]

yes, you should go to at least see if you enjoy playing volleyball, and then decide if you want to continue.

[@blackrebel857]

Quick question the right side hitter can be a setter right?

[@SohannaVball]

Yes, but it depends on the formation the team runs.

[@Sagara4488]

RH means Opposite Hitter ?

[@hatsuneleeku]

I am 13 and going into high school next year, and I really want to join the volleyball team, but hardly have any experience with volleyball and have never played it on a team, is it too late for me to start volleyball?

[@SohannaVball]

No, it's not too late! I created a video explaining if it's ever too late, and when the right age to start volleyball is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmeopn2EpNGtqbc

[@maiaaa13]

hi i have a question, so if i'm assigned as a libero i can't rotate?

[@SohannaVball]

no in most cases, the libero will never rotate.

[@ncxymj8182]

400th like🤪🤪

[@vic6601]

for the attack line the back row players can or can’t hit the ball in front of?

[@SohannaVball]

the back row players can't jump in front of the attack line and hit.

[@deviledcookie515]

When rotating do you need to change position like if your a Libero and you you rotate would you still be a libero or would you need to change depending? I wanna try out for volleyball this summer 😅

[@SohannaVball]

This all depends on your coach. But usually if you are assigned a position (like libero) you won't rotate.

[@deviledcookie515]

Oh ok thank you!!

[@iagree8643]

Hi I'm a little confused? I want to do volleyball but I don't know what to do. Will the school tell me when are tryouts. Do I not play in school? I'll ask my teachers but I just wanted a second opinion. Thanks

[@NANI-bg1ds]

School should tell when tryouts are happening. You don't have to play for your school if you have to, but that would mean that you would have to find somewhere else to play volleyball. It's up to you if you want to play for your school.

[@elizabethmiller7437]

Please post more!

[@SohannaVball]

I will

[@sampanea1889]

Hi coach what happens when you rotate clockwise? Does this mean you should be familiar with all the positions and their responsibilities as you move in those zones because of rotation? Also, in a 6- 2 formation I undressed that there is no liberal and it is more offensive setup?. If the liberal is in a MB position can he block or attack? Thank you.

[@SohannaVball]

yes, you should be familiar with all positions when rotating. There can be a libero in a 6-2 formation, or they will just have to replace another back-row player (since there will be two setters in this formation). In most cases, a libero cannot block or attack upfront.

[@sampanea1889]

Thank you very much coach, I am trying to set up a girl's volleyball team and I am very interested in the game and I would appreciate each and every help I get. Do you offer coaching courses or are they any links or Materials you can recommend? Are you on any social media?

[@gdoggyfresh291]

Try outs are August 9th i don’t have long. I’ve never played volleyball in my life but I really wanna tryout for the team. Is there anyway yuu can help me? I’m 5’2 so I don’t think I can be any blocker I’m also not extremely fast so I can’t be a libero. I don’t know what to do.

[@christinabouchebel2144]

I can't understand how do people have positions like "im a setter" like whe they rotate their position is gonna change right?

[@SohannaVball]

yes, when teams rotate their positions change because they don't have one assigned for each player. If someone has a position like a setter, their team will not rotate.

[@Brooklynns2cool4school]

Does the position change when you rotate?

[@SohannaVball]

It depends if your team is doing a specific formation. In some school teams positions rotate but in most high level games they don’t.

[@Angie-wt8pg]

How is the setter in the top?

[@SohannaVball]

This is the most common formation for vball. If your team has the setter in a different position, you would be using a different formation.

[@iam_eyecandykev]

should be rotating clockwise to the right not the left...Good video

[@arisharama252]

Hey Sohanna, is there a set time for when players are supposed to move clockwise or does it depend on the team coach??

[@SohannaVball]

Your players rotate after your team earns a point.

[@-The-real-Alhaitham]

I am so confused. My school doesn't go one spot to the right. They go the the opposite of each other, say I'm in the setter's position, when we rotate I'd move to the Outside Hitter's position. I have a game today and I still don't understand it and I am freaking out!

[@SohannaVball]

That’s because your school might be doing a different formation, in this case you would just have to follow the direction of the rotation or ask your coach for clarification.

[@-The-real-Alhaitham]

Alright. I'm sure I'll get used to it soon!

[@calebplaygames]

Ok for my team I want the twins as my left biter and setter, kurro, and tendou as my other blockers, then POST TIME SKIP Hinata as middle blocker, and ushijima as the left hitter. Libero is going to be the goat nishinoya

[@4eva_yng]

shouldnt the rightside hitter be on the front? where the nb 2 is?

[@SohannaVball]

The rightside hitter is usually in position 1, but this can change because each team has its own formations.

[@4eva_yng]

@@SohannaVball THANK YOU

[@ysmybfbutraejoon]

does setter allowed to block the ball?

[@SohannaVball]

yes, a setter can block.

[@4eva_yng]

im so confused cause the postions are put differently in every video and picture I see

[@SohannaVball]

This is because there are different formations. Your coach/teacher should let you know which one to follow but this video just shows the most commonly used formation.
