Answer 1

I take it you're not a setter?

Like the others said, you're suppose to pivot, but you don't always have to. Sometimes you can't if the play isn't right.

When setting a ball sideways, its just like normal setting except you want to turn your chest and arms to the side that you are setting (I know, kinda hard to understand). It's really not hard at all. I really don't know how to describe it unless I had a picture.

You see how her arms are straight? All you would have to do then is turn your chest like i said before.

Good luck with it!

Answer 2

your supposed to pivot. NEVER  try to set a ball sideways! what is your coach saying! this is what your supposed to do as the ball enters your hands you turn and pivot towards your hitter. then you push the ball out and end faceing the target

Answer 3

How about just asking her?
