I used to be a pretty reliable blocker in my day, but I just learned something...Thanks for the great video!

[@Derlet30]

This is such a great video! And also I love to see the athletes having fun. That is what sports are all about! ❤

[@pazuld]

thanks for uploading this, this is a great video. How can I block effectively without touching the net? This is the most difficult thing for me. When I try to be tight, then I worry about touching the net.

[@VBMichael_D]

Jump straight up. Do not float laterally in the air, and keep your arms straight....do not try to shift your hands one way or another to trick a hitter (you will get embarrassed by elite hitters if you do that) and do not swing block. Keep your hands in front of you (like you are going to do a bench press), then jump straight up and reach over.
Your hands being in front of you like that, will allow you to keep your proper distance from the net.

[@eng2625]

What is overreaching violation?

[@redshark618]

If the ball is still on your opponent's court, you're not allowed to touch it until after their 3rd contact. If any part of the ball is above the vertical plane of the net, either team is allowed to touch it. Overreaching often happens when the ball is passed close to, but not on top of the net. The setter is usually trying to set and the opposing blocker is trying to block or hit the ball prematurely.

[@melonusk6120]

@@redshark618 it is not necesarry for it to be 3rd touch, the main point is the trajectory of the ball is crossing to the other side

[@sachinsiwach5425]

Good
