SETTING

The second kind of pass we will discuss is an overhead pass or "set." The overhead pass is often the second pass on a side and it directs the ball to your teammate so s/he can hit (or spike) the ball over the net. A setter is important in volleyball, since s/he controls the offense and decides who will receive the ball for the big hit. Setting is done by placing your hands above your head a few inches with your thumbs underneath and fingers making a window. The ball is played with the fingers and an extension of the arms but the legs are equally important.
