Become a Better Volleyball Setter Faster, Use These Terms As a Volleyball Setting Study Guide

 

Volleyball setters are responsible for leading their team’s attack on their opponents, relaying tactical information from the coach to her teammates and being the spark plug with the ability to see the big picture when it comes to directing her team’s offense.

 

Back set – A back set is the type of set a setter delivers to a player that is behind them. Because the setter starts at the net which positions them to have their back to their right front hitter, that right front attacker will receive a lot of back sets since the setter does not have time to turn around and face them to set the ball, so instead they set the ball backwards over their head. A back set comes in all forms, such as a back high ball, a back shoot, a fake X and a back quick.

 

Over set – An over set typically occurs when a setter is trying to run a fast attack and in their attempt to deliver a ball to a specific hitter sets the ball too far past the area where the hitter is supposed to make contact with the ball and the ball gets “set over” the net.

 

An over set happens also when a ball is set in a way that it misses its intended target area for an outside hitter which prevents him/her from hitting the ball. An over set would usually be considered a setting error, since the spiker was unable to contact the ball.

 

Dump – A dump is the term used to describe the act of a setter ‘dumping’ the ball into the opposing team’s court instead of setting the ball to one of her attackers and is done typically when the setter is front row and in an attempt to catch the other team’s blockers and defense off guard.

 

When the setter is in the front row she is also considered an attacker, so to keep the opposing blockers guessing, she will mix up her sets to her hitters every now and then with attempts to hit or dump the ball into the other team’s court.

 

One of the more effective and deceptive styles of dumping a ball is for the setter to jump set as if she was about to set the ball to one of her players and instead by using her hand that’s furthest away from the net, ‘assisting’, “pushing” or dumping the ball into the opposing court.

 

Although a dump occurs usually when a setter pushes the second ball over the net after a serve receive by her own team, it can also occur if the server from the opposing team serves the ball short and a setter is already standing at the net and decides to dump the ball over the net into the opposing court before her team has a chance to receive serve or if a pass or serve receive from the opposing team is overset or overpassed and comes across the net, a setter or her teammate will ‘dump” the ball back into the court from where the ball came so the opposing team doesn’t have time to recoup and play defense.

A brave effort at cramming one disc full of Temptations classics, The Ultimate Collection nevertheless makes a couple of puzzling choices. Why, for instance, include “Error of Our Ways,” a very minor mid-’90s hit, and ignore “Beauty Is Only Skin Deep” or “I Could Never Love Another (After Loving You),” both number ones from their classic period? Still, for the price, it’s hard to argue with. –Ric…
