volleyball positions
Im a junior in high school, and I play volleyball all year around. We just got all new coaches for JV and Varsity (the only teams we have.) Anyway, (I swear Im not bragging) Im a really versitile player, and the high school Im in doesnt have talented players (litterally.) Tryouts start monday. I have played middle, outside, and opposite. I love opposite and Im especially good at it. the thing is my coach needs setters and im the best we have. So Im his new ideal setter. We have two other possible setters, but they arent as good as me appariently. Im so upset to be setter, Im a hitter at heart, and its what Im good at. How do I talk to my coach about my position change? Im so upset please help!

I play volleyball too :) Here's the thing... despite what you WANT to play, you need to play where your coach wants you. If you're are truly one of the best setters and you actually want to win, you need to follow your coach's instructions and be a setter. It's all about what will benefit the TEAM, not yourself. Kinda like that "there's no I in team thing :) I know you don't want to be the setter, I've been in that position before when I really didn't want to play middle but I had to suck it up and play my best so our team could win. So that's what you have to do too...just take one for the team. Plus, if the other setters aren't as good, then really you would have to be hitting bad sets, which both of us know doesn't feel NEARLY as hitting a straight shot to the corner or cramming it down the opponet's throat off a perfect set :) Goodluck!
