Setter
Back Row Purposes Front Row Purposes
Backrow: When setter position is in the back row, they just move to the setting position, which is a little bit to the right of the front middle position. It doesn't really matter where the setter is in rotation, they will always return to their base. Setter is a very key position in volleyball, and the second pass is usually up to the setter to get. As a back row setter, you cannot block or attack the ball or hit the ball at all above the net. ... If you touch the ball at the same time as a blocker on the opposing team, you also commit an illegal block. Frontrow: Once again, the front row position for a setter is to just move to their base in the court. The setter is the playmaker, point guard or the quarterback of the volleyball team. A setter's responsibility is to run the team's offense and build up offensive scoring opportunities for the team. The setter plays both front row and back row, therefore s/he needs to be able to block, serve and play defense.
