Tremendous tutorial! Donny your videos are absolute terrific: you properly explain how techniques were invented, why you should learn them and in which situation they are being used. In giving detailed description and great footage from different angles of how it is done, you make it easy for everyone to learn. Specially in showing different drills, players can really practice the course of movement in game like stations. Keep it up coach, you make fantastic videos!
Thank you again for the great video Coach Donny! I am currently having struggles with back row hitting like pipes... Can you plz make a video for it? Thank you so much and keep up the good work!
Yesterday in practice we did this, but as soon as it was on the floor I froze in fear and couldn't do it. Thanks to your video I will gain confidence in no time. Thanks coach!
Q: 1. how many players for receiving server? 3 back-row players? 2. where they stand? middle of the back-section (20 feet)? 3. how close they should be to side-line?
I guess you can say that rolling will allow yourself to get back on your feet quicker than lateral diving. But really, it's all about preference depending on which you are more comfortable with.
Also due to the motion of diving laterally it’s you’re more likely to hit it off to the side in the direction you move. As opposed to a roll, where you stay behind the ball for the duration of your contact, meaning that the ball is propelled back towards the net, or at least in that general direction.
i know another way to roll that puts you directly onto your feet afterwards. you roll backwards instead of sideways, then when you finish the roll, you’ll be already on you feet, no need to have another standing up motion it’s really cool and fluent, doesn’t hurt at all. It’s for both pancakes and digs… I tried to roll as demonstrated here during my training and other people were all shouting about how my rolling was wrong 🙁
Coach Donny, on a completely unrelated note to a rolling dive, could you make a video on how a setter could throw off a block? Like certain plays like running a D or A ball instead of a normal 4, 1, 2, or 5? It would help immensely, I'm looking for ways to help my team attack. Also could you go over when to run those attacks? attacks like slides and D balls, A balls, and pipes? Would be super helpful thanks!
& maybe how to feint a block to make them slower on the block? I've tried things like looking back then going outside rather than right side and vise versa but it doesn't seem to work. I know that there has to be a way to confuse a block, I see it done by high level setters all the time. If you would like to take the time and share your knowledge on this subject, I'd be very pleased. Thank you coach!
Hi Coach Donny, could you please make a video on dive receiving a ball that you are trying to hit back onto the court? For example like when it is hit off the block and goes flying over your head, and you have to turn around and pass it back the other direction over your head? I have tried using the form for a normal dive when passing a ball to the setter when I am facing him, but it is totally different when the setter is behind you. Thanks!
Saber Toob Be attentive and do what you can reasonably do. Don't show off and do a jump serve if you're not good at it. Consistency is more important than flashy plays. It's also important to communicate during tryouts. Be vocal, call every ball you're going to get, yell free balls, call ins and outs during serve receives, etc. Good luck!
Saber Toob If you're spiker, then hit it with power. Then if you're libero or any kind of position, I think you practice the PANCAKE👌 Also you MUST HAVE A CONTROLL(GOOD) PASSING
there is one more dive which international players do same as that of dolphin dive. where u dive for the front ball and continue slide resting stomach and get up giving wave to the body. even do that for us
Hi, I was wondering what to do when the ball is going over you and theres no one to support it. Do I reach or just run for it? Your videos are really helpful, thank you:)
Hey coach, I have volleyball tryouts in 1 week and I don't have much experience with organized volleyball, but I know how to play well and I know all the rules and how the roles work I'm very nervous on what I should focus on so I can make the team. Any tips on what to focus on?
I have a question. I tried doing this and your video helped a lot. But i constantly keep hitting my hips. Is it bc I'm doing something wrong or I just can't prevent it???
I see sum haikyuu fans on here but I’ve only watched haikyuu bc I actually liked the sport and ever sense I saw nishi do da rolling thunder here I am 😌this helped doe thank u 😊
