Receive Rotation 6

Our last receive, and they are once again out of alignment. Look at this picture, use the numbers, and tell me where it is! Use the first slide if you need to here. Number 12, our setter, is the RF.





Did you get it? Here's more help.





The L came in for #3, and took up residence in the middle of the court, despite being the RB.

You are probably saying, how am I ever going to see that? Its easy. Remember that, in addition to the setter and opposite being opposite, the middles are opposite and the outsides are opposite. See below what happens when I show you the players by position. Remember a C.A.T. is thoughtful, we know the sport.

A middle is the left front, and outside is standing right back. One of them is wrong! We've seen this rotation many times now, because the match has gone on a while. We observe, and we learn. We've been at this an hour, and never seen them stand this way before. We know that #1 hangs out with the setter. We know that there is a middle in front of the setter. We fix it, after we've penalized it.





If you are not sure, look at the picture below of the fifth rotation, where they were legal. The middles are RF and LB, the setter and opposite are the CF and CB, and the outsides are the LF and RB. In other words, they are all opposite their opposites! Not so in the picture above.





Now, look at the picture at the top of the page and tell me who the next server is, and what positions our setter and our opposite need to be in on the next slide!

Yep! We're done! We've seen all six rotations. Number 12 is going to go back to serve, #11 is going back to being left front, and, just maybe, won't be out of rotation this time!
