Position Specific Training – Setter

We need a minimum of 3 athletes to run the session. This session will start on September 20, 2020

Setters are the brains, central nervous system, leaders and the tacticians of the team. Having a strong setter can make the foundation for a great Team. It is our goal to train the individual and essential setter skills, advanced setting skills if athletes are ready as well as the setter/hitter relationship for middle blockers and outside hitters.

We will approximately focus 30-45 minutes or more on individual skills such as:

• Finger position on ball
• Contact and release point of ball in relation to the body
• Proper body position (always being neutral)
• Footwork at the net
• Footwork coming of the net & proper squaring-up techniques
• Jump setting
• Second ball attack – variations
• We will teach proper location for sets – (Location, Location, Location!!!)
• Immediate video feedback via “Coaches Eye”

We will approximately focus 30 – 45 minutes on skills such as: 

• How to set your Middle Blockers and Outside Hitters
• Setter/Libero relationship – how to work together
• Tactical concepts for setters (Front Row vs Back Row)
• Strategy for beginning and advanced setters
• Defensive transition
• Freeball & downball transitions (Front Row & Back Row)
• Blocking schemes & responsibilities
• How to communicate with and motivate your hitters
• Setting against the flow
• Immediate video feedback via “Coaches Eye”
