Having a good setter is crucial to the overall success of any team. It is essential that you not only choose the right setter, but also train them to his/her highest potential. In this session, father-son team Arnie and Lloy Ball teach the necessary skills to work with a partner or by yourself to improve your setting.

Lloy Ball demonstrates numerous drills you can do with a spectrum of resources - whether it's at home with one ball in or on a court with a bunch of balls and another teammate.

In practicing all aspects of the game, the Balls show setters how to become better and stronger while improving their teams. You'll learn how to drill skills crucial to becoming and remaining a top setter:

• Dig to and communicate with your libero
• Get to the ball from difficult rotations 3 and 4
• Dig from zones 5 and 6, then transition to set
• Use efficient footwork to cut the ball off

The best setters are those that motivate themselves to practice ALL THE TIME! This presentation shows how your setters can push themselves to get more touches. Whether alone or with only a few free minutes.

This DVD offers incredible insight from two of the world's top authorities on setting!
