Setter
The setter is the backbone of the offense and makes the decisions about who gets
the ball when. She touches the ball on the second contact and delivers it to her hitters. She
needs to be able to take in a lot of information at once and to make good decisions in a split
second. Consistency here is key.

POSITION OF PLAYERS
In a typical game of volleyball, there are usually six players on each team on the
court, and each player has their roles and responsibilities.
This is due to the nature of the sport where players move around and play flexibly,
doing what is required in any given situation.
