Many of my athletes have not been involved in volleyball before they start with our program. This explains the basics of rotating and rotated positions.
This helped me so much! I am currently on my first year of actually playing on a team (i have self taught myself all of the skills i know for the passed two years) and i am trying to figure out rotations! Again, this video helped tremendously and it didn't feel like it was cramming information down my throat. thank you for all your help!
What other volleyball basics do you want to see explained? (Oh, and thanks to the commenters for mentioning "Haikyu!!". I didn't know it existed. Very interesting story!)
Yup defo... And because of haikyuu I want to play volley ball and I'm studying so I can be the best I can... This video was very helpful and your comments made me laugh Stay safe Abi xxx
I'm glad it helped. There are some more advanced videos on my channel that you might find helpful. It's important to understand that each coach may have a different approach to the game. You will learn new things from every coach and from your fellow players, so have fun and keep an open mind. Whenever you learn a new skill and get frustrated, remember that you are not there...yet. But you will be. ;-)
i Play Volleyball and no one ever explained the basic rules to me, I knew I had to have some knowledge before joining a team but I nearly had any and i think you should still get some stuff explained, right? My teammates got annoyed with me bc I don’t know how rotations work and I always had to check what they’re doing in order to keep up. Haven’t been able to play because of an extreme heat wave where i live and then I went on a 10 days trip with my family, my sister lost interest in volleyball so I couldn’t and still can’t practice with her but your videos helped me so much. Thank you
i am watching this because i haven’t played volleyball in over a year due to the pandemic and i forgot about volleyball rotations haha i’m just getting back into it
two questions, 1) so after the serve is made anyone can go in front or behind anyone? or do we stay in this formation the whole game? 2) once the serve is made can someone playing the the back row go up to the front row? or do they stay in the back? thanks!
After the serve (by either team), players can move anywhere on the court and overlap rules do not apply. They do need to remember to go back to their rotated positions after the point and sometimes they forget. Also, only front row players can block and attack from in front of the 10'/3m line. Back row players can attack (hit ball above the net height) if they take off from behind the 10'/3m line. (Except for the special libero player, if used. They can not attack a ball above the plane of the net or net height). Hope this helps.
I really enjoy this illustration, this is a very good presentation. Could you please tell me which software are you using for this illustration? Thank you, much appreciated.
I use an app on iPad called CoachNote Volleyball+ for the chart. I use either ScreenFlow or Ecamm Live Pro for capturing the commentary and my camera. None of them are free, but you could probably find some inexpensive software to duplicate the effect.
Very helpful! So I have a question.....if the team A is serving, but team B gets the point, that triggers a rotation correct? And does both team rotate or only the team that just lost a point(team A in this instance)?
Teams rotate to get the next server to the service line. So, rotation occurs when a team wins the serve. Only the team that has won the serve rotates. If both teams were to rotate, only every other person on the team would serve. So, in your example Team B has just won the point and will rotate. Team A will stay in their current rotation until they win the serve. When they win the serve, they will rotate and Team B will not. Hope this helps.
question i don't really get it so after your team serves can you move where ever you want? Because i watched your base position rotation video and your base position video and you went out of rotation but it wasn't wrong i'm confused but i think its a good video.
Once the ball is contacted on a serve, players can move anywhere on the court. Based on their rotated positions, there may be limitations on what they can do. For example, front row players are allowed to attack in front of the 3 m line, while back row players cannot. So, you are correct that when we are at base, we may not be in rotation, and we are not required to be in rotation. I hope this helps.
As the serve starts the play, each player can play anywhere on the court. However, only front row players can attack or block a ball above net height. At the end of the play, players go back to their rotated order/positions. Teams rotate when they win the serve and need the next server to serve.
It’s called “Coach Tactic Board: Volleyball” for iOS. It is pretty good. There are a few limitations. But it’s one of the better apps I use. The video is done with Screenflow. Other tools like Camtasia would work too.
If you served and your team won the point, you serve again. If your team lost the point, the other team will rotate and serve. Then, if the other team loses a point, your team will win the serve back and will rotate. The person who rotates into the right back position will then be the server. You would be in the middle back of the rotation as your teammate serves.
This is basic rotation without specialized positions. One thing to remember is that if you switch floor positions during a point, you need to get back in the order shown here before the next serve. If you have just won back the serve through a sideout, you will return to your "rotational" position and rotate. I have much more on some of the switches you can make in other videos on my channel. Check them out and ask any questions you may have. Take care. Coach Steve
Great question! Rotation occurs when you earn the serve (called "siding out" or "side out"). Think of it this way, you rotate when you get the ball back because if you did not, the same server would serve. When you lose your serve, you do not rotate until you get the serve back by earning the point or getting the point on your opponent's error, which is called a side out.
I wanna try to get into a team in my middle school I’m going to next school year. I’m currently 11 and 5’1! (Almost 5’2) all of this is because of Haikyuu. :)
