okay i know its hard for some of you even hard for me! I just learned how to set you dont make a window you make triangle. and bend your arms when the ball comes and extend your arms for strength.
The setters have horrible footwork in this video...never never cross the legs and use the balls of your feet. I think he should have better explained the fingers springing forward, but not past where your hand is vertical with your forearm.
you arent supposed to flick your wrist forward. thats not good. ive went to volleyball camps my whole life and you are not a very good example. Also weight on your toes? You need to have your weight on the balls of you feet when your setting because you cant use your legs when your on your toes. and you dont lunge forward. you push up. If you lunge forward, it will go out far, but it wont go up very high.
I've played for 8 years in Brazil, and I can say that your way is not so good, but it is not wrong either, so if you do it in a game it will be legal, but it will not be a beautifull movement.
I play volleyball and my coach taught me something different. I tried your way and my coach's way is better and the position is way more comfortable for me
I don't agree with your demonstration. I think the best technique is not with your dominant foot. It will be preferable to engage the foot which is near the net.

im in junior high and i dont want to start any bad habits is this bad setting? setting comes naturally to me and i have no idea how i look when i set this vid was kinda confusing and are there different kinds of sets?
Bro it's moose to super man ! Try that shit I'll set better than ever I learn this in highschool volley ball, what u did would be called fir a lift its sad when a fresh man who's been in volley ball for 9 weeks can teach how to set better than u
LOL... first, tell your hitters to open up to the set. Secondly,where does someone start? You need to contact the ball higher, setting the ball on your forehead is very elementary. Not to mention very predictable... Dont flick your wrists, dont bend your knees so much, dont drag your feet, use a left right (foot) push method, keep your chin down... ugh... this is ridiculous. worse video ever.
@GFXDaZe thanks,i need a couple of inches more in height. there is this herbal product named " helpo growth formula" ww.....helpogrowth(.)commm that i ve been using it for months and actually can notice the difference now.

@GFXDaZe i want to grow a few inches more in height.there is this herbal product named " helpo growth formula" ww.....helpogrowth(.)commm that i ve been using it for months and actually can notice the difference now.
i don't understand why i wasn't picked out onn volleyball school contest. oh well mabye because i don't look to athletic, i was the dude that saved most of the time but still :/ i fucking hate my class and my teacher. because my teacher said that we had to deside so, after 5 seconds they picked out the 6 most "athletic" persons in class
I know how to do pretty much everything so far in volleyball except for setting :( I tried so hard my dad tried practicing with me and he said lets practice setting and im like nooooo! I tried my best but he got so mad on how much i suck at setting that he went inside and said don't bother playing with me until you get that setting right. I dont know what to do now ;(
Omg i need some help!!! Im starting jr high tomorrow and volleyball tryoutts is on the second day of school... One problem. IVE NEVER ACTUALLY PLAYED BEFORE!!! i mean ive practiced passing and serving but i still dont know anything much!!!!
acually no mater wether your a righty or lefty you always want your right foot forward so you can be open to your hitters. if your left foot is forword your body is facing the net.
ok wow everyone, at least he made an effort and is tryi ng to help people. who cares if people are better than him. i have played volleyball my entire life and i am the settr, but i aint saying something bad abotu this guy... he is just trying to help. if you put a video up trying to help someone would you want people to do this to you.. pretty sure he doest care how he looks
It's not a case of being better than someone else, not at all. Think about a 14 year old player starting out and developing bad habbits because of this. I'm sure the guy is a good setter but it's a poor choice of clips to use.
@deadwing5 Still got the job done though, so what's the big deal? Aren't you allowed to improvise in volleyball? Most people can't be thinking of 5 things at once while preparing to set the ball up standing at an angle.
@Scootman78 Well if it were a game I wouldn't have a problem with it. This is an instructional video, so it has to be spot on. Really how hard is it to get a clip of a good set?
@deadwing5 agreed. if you're not doing it properly in a non-game situation, then when it comes to game situation, it'll cause bad habits and worsen your play. Getting the job done isn't good enough because when you meet someone who gets the job done better, you'll lose.
come on guys don't be so hard, he's right about how you aren't supposed to move your arms but to use your fingers and legs to keep your sets strong.
also about the "over the head" thing? it depends on the length that you need to set the ball, if youre setting a middle then u need to have hands more over head than if you were setting an outside to a 4 or 5
omfg thats soo nubish im train volleyball 11 time in week and when i see that guy set i got LOLOLOLOL! :D :D :D :D :D just look he's fingers in the final of the pass :D
his setting his acceptable. and at a junior level, setting is in the legs but as u advance, setting actually comes from the arms. watch college videos or olympics. they jump set a lot and in the air, u cant use ur legs lol. jus study it. especially since the level is higher, everything must be quicker so the setter has to push with his arms or wrist to run a quicker play.
The momentum of jumping provides a little energy from your legs, but you're generally right. But really anyone trying to learn from this video is a beginner and this is probably the way to go.
smthing dosent seem right when you setted the ball.....it look like the vball stayed in your hand too long...you will be called a lifting violation.....
your supposed to put your hand in the air like 4 inches above your forehead and pretend like your drinking a milk carton. then you want to push out and reach for the stars still make your hands like that. for setting its not all wrist. its also your legs. just like in passing. and your hand should never be touching. thats a lift. just relax your hands. the steps should be right left.
PLEASE HELP!!Everytim i set,my thumbs hurt lik a son of a bitch.People tel me that im jst bein a girl and that i need 2 be more "PAIN CONSCIOUS" bt i seriously dnt noe wats wrng with it!My coach told me to set without my thumbs bt i cnt gt enough power.Da doctors told me to nt play for 2weeks and it would gt better bt its been 10weeks and it stil hurts.Its very fustratin and embarasing caus every1 else can do it good as. ARGHHH!!!
just remember stiff fingers (not so stiff that it looks like you have arthritis) but stiffer than you usually have it.... And if push more with your wrists and not so much of your fingers... Let me know if it helps
Hey thx 4 da advice. I dnt gt da stiff fingers part tho. i gt taught 2 catch da ball with ur hands and release it with one quick motion bt when i do it,it looks like a hold sortof. Anyways its the beginning od the school holidays here in New Zealand for 2weeks and i wont be able to play til school starts again. Yea i'll tell you if it helps or not.
if u dont have the power use your legs more. make a little hop. Also if u wanne play it try and get u thumbs backwards so u dont get the ball on top of em. Let the ball come in your hands and not on em.
"Let the ball come in your hands and not on em". I have tried that but it feels kind of weird not using your thumbs. I've tried stripping it and stuff but didn't really help. Sometimes it swells up and yea... its happened to my other teammates but they've played way before me so they've learned to set properly. when i first began playing i didnt have this problem until i sorta got better. but yea i dnt know maybe its just me... more practicing and sore thumbs i guess.. lol
too set, you basically catch the ball for a split second, snap your wrists and push off with your legs and upper body. its all a flowing motion and youll be able to do it. i have no idea why your thumbs are hurting. try taping them or something. and you cant set without thumbs haha. so idk what your coach was thinkin.
I have to agree with highflyersvbc on one point: he flicks his wrists a little too much. I've been taught that "swimming fingers" are strictly for swimming lol. But saying that his hands are too small to set I'm disagreeing with because I've met lots of great setters with small hands. I have a great team and I set for them, mind you I've got really really small hands yet I've won many mvps. So I have to give props to this guy for at least trying to help people with upping their game (Y)
have someone toss it high in the air to you and you pretend your going to set but just catch it, then throw it back up in the air. keep doing that then start setting (the same thing you were doing before except you don't catch it, you just firmly push it up)
just one thing... it's very easy to read his set. if you want to disguise back or front set better, the ball must arrived at a higher point (on the setter's forehead).
this is not a smart guide.. ur not suppsed to pinch the ball.... and you are not supposed to take two quick steps.... i know how to play ive played in 5 state teams..

Sometimes it swells up and yea... its happened to my other teammates but they've played way before me so they've learned to set properly. when i first began playing i didnt have this problem until i sorta got better. but yea i dnt know maybe its just me... more practicing and sore thumbs i guess.. lol

too set, you basically catch the ball for a split second, snap your wrists and push off with your legs and upper body. its all a flowing motion and youll be able to do it. i have no idea why your thumbs are hurting. try taping them or something. and you cant set without thumbs haha. so idk what your coach was thinkin.

I have to agree with highflyersvbc on one point: he flicks his wrists a little too much. I've been taught that "swimming fingers" are strictly for swimming lol. But saying that his hands are too small to set I'm disagreeing with because I've met lots of great setters with small hands. I have a great team and I set for them, mind you I've got really really small hands yet I've won many mvps. So I have to give props to this guy for at least trying to help people with upping their game (Y)

Ya your not that great of a setter, you flick ur wrists too much. You need bigger hands to be a setter.

i can't set!!!!why everytime i try to set the ball went backward or does not fly high....i'm soo frustrated...

have someone toss it high in the air to you and you pretend your going to set but just catch it, then throw it back up in the air. keep doing that then start setting (the same thing you were doing before except you don't catch it, you just firmly push it up)

i dont really like this guy, he makes it seem harder than it is .... and why do they edit him in when hes talking at the beginning of each??
gummbie101 3 years ago
just one thing... it's very easy to read his set. if you want to disguise back or front set better, the ball must arrived at a higher point (on the setter's forehead).
