Question

I'm 5'6, REALLY good at forearm bumps and quick. What position should i play in volleyball?

Answer 1

Defensive specialist.  If you can bump with accuracy and cover a lot of area you are perfect for a defensive sub to cover for the front line people who cannot play back line to save their life.

Answer 2

I highly recommend you play the libero (middle back) position because to be a really good libero, you got to know how to pass really well. Also, a good libero should be very fast on their feet and they have to have really quick reactions which you say you're good at. I think you'll be an exellent libero.

Other than than that, i expect you'd be a good middle front. You'll be such a valuable libero if you can play both middle front and middle back. If you can really get up there and jump high for blocking, you'll be terrific at being middle front.

good luck and keep loving volleyball. :)

Answer 3

Go back row because you can use your speed to help the front row. Also if you are good at bumping the back row does a lot of that because they usually get the first hit which is a bump. The front row does a lot of setting and spiking.

Answer 4

DS (defensive specialist or back row)

or libero.

Answer 5

you should be at the back getting the ball to the setter

Answer 6

up front so you can get it in the air for spikes

Answer 7

defensive specialist (back row)

Answer 8

You should play defensive specialist. This position is usually subbed in at the back for the middle blocker. This allows the girls who are tall( over 6') to block well when up front, but sub out and let those who have a lower center (defensive specialist) of gravity pass from the back row.  You can also look into setting. If you have good balance and are quick- this may be a great spot for you on a team.
