Tip by Jose Garcia, Mission Hills HS in San Marcos, CA.
Prior to a serve being initiated, coach your players to find the front row and back row hitting options. As a game develops, a team will begin to develop tendencies based on what rotation they are in, what hitter is controlling the game, or blocking match ups. Calling out where hitters are is the first step to being able to establish your block on them which then allows your defenders to place themselves in a position to dig a ball.
