I play libero, but i need help?

Question

OK, so i play libero, i'm good at anticipating where the ball will go, and digging. but lately, i haven't been able to get the ball to my setter. i find myself thinking more about what i'm supposed to do instead of just doing it

am i going through a slump? how do i get out of it?

Answer 1

it's great that you can see where a pass is coming to you, and it's the same thing for passing to your setter make sure your shoulders and feet and hips are facing your target- my coach always tells me square up

Answer 2

think about something else dont try to hard or you will fail

Answer 3

i used to play libero, and what i found that worked for me is to not think so much. just get the ball and put it up high for your setter. your setter should do the rest for you by moving to the ball, we have the hard part of digging the ball, so just let your setter do  the rest. =)

Answer 4

i play libero too.  just relax.  Also focus on moving your feet to where the ball will land.  Another thing that you can do is look at the ball hit your platform.  The one thing that helps me is to just think about all the great passes you have had and focus on what you have done well.  Everything will turn out fine. Sometimes you just have bad passes.  Relax.

Answer 5

try not to think about what your doing....i had a slump and it was because i was always over thinking everything when i just go with what i've practiced and don't think about i pass so much better

Answer 6

i used to play libero, but now im an outside. last tournament, my team didnt do well at all. we were all way off and idk why, but we're trying to forget about it and start over ;]

my coach always told me that it doesnt have to be directly to the setter everytime. that should be your goal, but just shake it off and make it up with a good one! she also told me that if im in a slump, just to relax and to pass a wat we  call a 10/20, meaning to pass it to the 10 foot line, about 20 ft high in the air, just a simple pass :]

dont think it over too much tho! just relax, imagine yourself passing/digging it right, and just do it. tell yourself you can! :]

you got it:]
