The Set
The purpose of the set is to establish the attack option by enabling an attack hit to occur on the next contact.
Key Points:
- Ready Position - Be balanced and ready to move, then move to a position that would allow the ball to land on the forehead if it were not to be set.
- Ball Shaped Hands - Position your hands above your head in the shape of the ball with your elbows in line with your ears. Look at the ball through the opening between your hands.
- Spread fingers - Accept the ball onto spread fingers with your elbows slightly bent. Use your legs and arms to push up and extend through the ball with your hands and wrists remaining firm.
- Follow through to your target.
