December 19, 2008, Newsletter Issue #178: Middle Blockers, Mirror Your Opponent

Tip of the Week

To be an effective CF (Center Front), you must love to work hard and be involved in every play. You´re like the shot blocker in basketball. You have to dominate the net, and make it your own, make opposing hitters think about what they´re doing, change their shots, throw off their game.

Here´s a pointer on playing tough CF:

Play one-on-one with the opposing CF. It´s like man-to-man in basketball. If she goes up, you must up. If she moves to hit a slide, you have to go with her. Unless you know for certain she´ll be out of the play, you have to "mirror" the opposing CF.
