You should be in the air already so that when I set the OH you're not jumping over/on/through him. I'll let you know when to show up for a 2 ball.

Since when does a middle in the front row pass the ball to get set a 1 ball? Either I'm standing there looking stooopid because I got burned by the opposing setter or I'm in the air throwing up a block.

Stop putting three balls between the MH and OH and start pushing those sets out to the pin where there is no confusion.

P.S. When are we playing doubles?

3 balls are for the OH, so hands off. Besides I'll start setting the pin when they start approaching from off the court. Pat Powers has shown us the error of our ways.

P.S. Next VBLI?

Thats why I like to play Opp, so i don't have to worry about the stuff you are discussing. I get to wait for the backset.

Well I see that since we have cleared up this discussion more is yet to come.

I will take everyone's thoughts into consideration and thanks for the insight everyone.


In Doubles though communication is key when your partnering up and trust is 9/10's the law of in competing.

Course earning one's trust is sometimes hard at that.

I have yet to find a girl serious about doubles...any takers anyone knows?

If you're looking for a reverse coed partner, there's a guy on here, Dex, who is always looking for a doubles partner. I don't know if he does reverse coed.

Some of the best setters I know are women and the only "handicaps" I can think of is that when running a 5-1, they are not effective hitters on broken plays and their dumps are a little more telegraphed because of the higher men's net.

What do you think these handicaps are???

P.S. Dex's profile is: http://www.vbli.com/forums/members/dex
