Calling all new-Liberos! beenplayingawhile-Liberos! Retired-Liberos! Let's talk about it! Tell me in the comments, do you want to be a Libero? Why? If not, what's your favorite volleyball position to play or learn about? Make sure your notification bell is on so you always know about new videos :) Keep Playing, KoKo ♡
I started playing in the beginning of my 7th grade year!~ (I just finished 7th) I really want to be a libero because I really admire how they can control the ball so well, and that they’re a position you can count on :) (the different jersey color is super cool as well!)
@@linda-zk2oo oh my gosh wow..I'm actually ending my 7th grade year and watched haikyuu, it sparked a passion in me and now I'm learning to play :) libero is a great position and what I'm going for
Funny 😂 I been practicing it and we do little games at my school and I done it in front of my class yelling it as I done it and all the weebs were like noya that you? 😂 best thing ever
I really want to learn to play volleyball so when I can go back to school I can join the volleyball club so I made a goal; as soon as school is over I’m going to train almost everyday to play volleyball and work for the position of Libero because Ive always wanted to be a Libero. I want to thank you Coach Koko, watching your videos help me a lot and keep me going so thank you so much!❤️
I have been playing volleyball since I was 4 and I’m 12 years old at the moment and I always wanted to be a Libero, I have worked really hard during quarantine and I called with my teacher and she said I did really good and she thinks I will definitely be a libero cause I can hit really hard things to hit and my teacher puts me Im the back row when we use to play games and i could get the ball to our setter I can read the ball pretty well
these are all the reasons why I wanted to be a libero before I became a setter! i found it so much fun to be the one making that awesome dig and receives their so underrated and before I switched to be a setter it was so much fun jumping over the line and make a libero set!
Am I the only on that when she said a lot want to be the libero I though of nishinoya from haikyu also if you reading this koko you really help me with my volleyball your like coach now thank you I love you and your videos 🥺 also how do you get the ball to go where I want like serves and bumps because I lack that It can’t go where I want
Gotta say, I can relate. I've been trained to be a Libero since 4th grade so I can proudly say that my skill's above average (not gonna brag). My family literally speaks and breaths Volleyball, Table tennis, and Badminton. Just because you're short doesn't mean that the only role that you can play in Volleyball is being a Libero, you can become a Spiker and a Middle blocker and just practice.
I’m short so being a Libero is pretty much my only option. And no, I can’t do crazy vertical jumps like those professionals. I can receive and have fast reflexes. Plus, the position seems fun. I’m going to join my first travel volleyball team by august.
Hiiii, I recently have really been into volleyball because of haikyuu. I’m currently in 8th grade and am planning to tryout for freshmen year. I don’t know what role is best for me yet but I think I would make a good setter. If anyone has good advice please let me know
I'm going to try out freshman year as well! I was told that new players tend to be hitters so you'll probably start there but you might get another position. Make sure to exercise over the summer and practice so your ready for try outs!
I used to be a good sever ( one time i did a complete set, just serving ) but now im not that good, so i want to be libero ( like nishinoya, cus im also short, but i also want to be like hinata who plays middle blocker, but is a decoy, also short) but i mostly want to be a libero :3
I've always wanted to be a libero just because I've always been really good at passing. I think it's a really cool and powerful position to play even if it is overlooked by many people.
Haven't started playing volleyball but i wanna be a Libero, when the pandemic ends i want to start playing volleyball and I'm definitely gonna practice my receive a lot.
Your tutorials made me fall in love with the game... I used to be a soccer player but I play more of volleyball recently... And I love it... Thanks to you Koko
Can 4’11 be a libero? I gotta good hustle and okay like almost every sport 😂people always told me to tryout but never did because I think I’m too short and this is my junior year of highschool
I think your good, im also short so im want to be a libero and im also fast and have a good reaction time (being a sniper in splatoon taught me to have a really fast reaction time cus i dont have much defense and im really vulnerable lol 😂😂)
Hello i was trying out for the libero position and i did it i watched allmost all off your videos they are a big help thank you so much keep up the great work
the fact that it's okay to be short for the libero position is so motivating because I was really feeling discouraged since im very short. I was upset because i doubt ill ever be able to be a spiker but I am interested in libero. thanks for this video
Man! I'm not crying at all 😭 I've been watching Haikyuu recently and i can't tell u guys how passionate i am right now to play volleyball ❤️❤️❤️ I really wanna thank you Koko you are an amazing person and ur content is very informative and beautiful! Love from Egypt 🇪🇬❤️
for a long period in my life i always saw volleyball as just another sport that we played in PE. it wasn’t until recently that i i fell in love with the sport. i almost immediately realized i wanted to play libero, but not because of my height. (i’m 5’2”) i want to play libero because i love the position but also i love receiving the most. i also may be bad at the sport, but i’m best at receiving. during quarantine i’ve been trying to practice and also watch other liberos play the sport. (if anyone had any advice for me it’d be greatly appreciated!!) when school starts, i’m going to try out for the libero position! i’m still working on other skills too incase i don’t get the position because i still want a chance to play.
Coach koko do you have any videos on diving and jumping for the ball? I can somewhat receive well but diving is my hard part, I'm pretty short too lmao
So, confession. When I was a teenager I wore 'hip pads' under my spandex because I was so bony and it hurt to fall! Maybe try that! It looks weird but helps you dive with no fear!
honestly, i just dive on instinct. whenever i see the ball about to fall onto the floor and no one is getting it, my legs move on their own and i just dive. it’s weird but watch videos on diving and there’s good tiktoks about diving as well :)
loved this even though i can't play volleyball yet this helped me alot i wanted to be a libero that was my dream scene i was 7 but my said no to it for a long time 2021 that is my year to be a libero
I am working on becoming a Libero and I hope to play in college at least just for fun! I am 4'7 so... I really think this is the perfect position for me! I love your videos Koko!
before my school season ended, my coach recommended to learn about libero because of my skills, he said “i believe all your skills are amazing but throughout the season you have been playing as a libero with out knowing you were” i was confused until he said “i have faith in you as any position, but you would be a amazing libero” i didn’t really know what libero was until i started fully practicing as a libero and learning about the position. i now enjoy being a libero:) i’m thankful my coach told me that.
Ok so I just introduced my bff to volleyball, and she wants to be a Libero. I got curious because I don’t really have experience with Libero’s so I’ve clicked on this video, I shared it to her. TYSM now her and I know EVERYTHING!
I’ve always loved Volleyball but I never thought I could be good at it so I never bothered trying. Lately I watched Haikyuu and it inspired me to follow my dream and practice to be the best I can. ^-^ I still suck and I’m still very out of shape but I’m working on it and your videos as well as the anime is helping me learn more about the roles and how to do basic things like passes. I’m still learning but my goal is to be at least moderately good at most basic things by the end of summer (when school starts for me). I have severe social anxiety and going outside is really hard for me but I’ve been going outside to practice by myself in the backyard more and more triggering both my anxiety and allergies. It feels amazing to have something inspiring me so much I can get past my fears and do all this. I’ve even been working out regularly so that I can get in better shape. The roles I’ve been interested in the most are libero and spiker, though I only know things about spikors from the anime so I gotta learn about it a bit more before I decide if I’m actually interested. I’m more on the short side (5’2) so that might make everything more difficult for me but I’m determined to make my skills make up for my height one day. I’ve even been thinking of joining the Volleyball team at my school next year even though I know it would be a huge struggle as a FtM trans guy to get in the boys team. All in all I’m not good at this (at all) but I’m determined to get better and I hope my comment can inspire someone else too. >^
Madd Mika im actually in the same position as you. I don’t get out much so I’m clearly out of shape and my stamina is soo low which makes it worse. Haikyuu also inspired me to play volleyball, of course the libero position stood out the most to me because its the one who keeps the ball in play. What I learned from the anime is that “It’s not game over if the ball hasn’t hit the floor yet.” I’ve been trying to practice my receives, we dont have an isolated place nor do i have anyone to practice with so I can only practice by myself just by tossing it to a wall and receiving it. Only problem is that my stamina is way too low so i get tired easily :( I’m also really short (4’11) so thats one of the reasons why I chose the libero position 😅
Aki Zuki Hey this might sound weird coming from a stranger in UA-cam comments but would you like to be friends? I’d love to have someone who also loves Volleyball (and Haikyuu) be my friend! That and I feel we can relate to each other. Haha sorry if I’m being weird here...
Madd Mika nah it’s not that weird, sure we can be friends. There aren’t really people who have the same interests like me so it’s hard finding someone to talk to about your likings. I’m also introverted so my socialising skills aren’t so good.. hehe..
Aki Zuki Same here do you have Instagram or Discord? Those are easy places to find me but if you don’t you can just tell me what place you have and I should have it.
im a libero at my school, and im pretty tall. i think after a week they realized- i really like passing. so they put me as a libero and im glad, i really like this role. :D
I ask my teacher if there was Volleyball team in our school because I want to be a Libero she said she's not sure and we talk about volleyball then I learn that she was a Libero before! And she said I would be a great Libero that give me so much confidence and inspiration to learn more about volleyball I'm so happy!
My friend convinced me to try volleyball. I'm pretty short for my grade, and my vertical is not good what-so-ever, so I wouldn't be good for offense. I'm pretty fast I must say, and she thinks I would be the best at libero. I'm going to practice with her for the first time tomorrow, and this gave me quite a bit of motivation! Gonna be watching this video over and over.
Hi, Coach Koko, I love your videos. Your videos are very useful and have really helped me become confident in playing volleyball. Keep up the good work.
Well, I have wanted to become a libero but I am literally the tallest player on my team, and one of the best attackers so the libero position won't be easy for me to get. Secondly, I can't dive properly, I am a decent passer (not great, but decent), and when I do have to get to the ball by falling on the ground I am slow, because once again I am tall, therefore shorter players can easily get to the ball much faster. Also, I love attacking, and blocking. It feels so great to get a kill, or a big block therefore I wouldn't want to give that up. The position I play is middle blocker, but I really want to try playing right-side hitter, because I am lefty and I think I will be able to get more kills, and blocks.
I’m new to volleyball and want to tryout for high school. I honestly do feel intimidated by the fact that probably all the players are well skilled while I’m a newbie still learning. Ever since I started practicing, I notice that my strongest skill was passing sooooo I was like...be a Libero!
I so wanna be one but I only learned since January of 2023 but this girl on the team complements me a lot and says how I would be so good on the team so this year I’m trying out 🙀
Honestly, I’ve always been into volleyball, but after not making the club team in November 2019, I was devastated. I went to the clinics that they invited me to, but still no spark. Until, back in early April, I started watching Haikyuu. I’m obsessed with it. And now that spark has been ignited once again. The only difference is, I’m not comparing myself to other players at my school, and only focussing on my abilities and getting better. I now have people that I can practice with and people who have given me advice. It’s really thanks to Haikyuu, and my best friend for recommending it, that I wanted to play again.
if you put in the work and effort and push yourself, you can be a great libero. some tips she didn’t cover for being libero that i use as a libero: as a libero, your always in serve receive, and when your in position waiting for the other team to pass the ball over make sure your feet open a little wider than shoulder length, bend your knees, and put most or all your weight in your toes and the front of your feet. when playing defense, you want all your motions going forward, that is why most weight is on your toes. you don’t want to be passing like at the floor or have hands on the ground for that ball, you want the moving forward. really dig dig dig for that hard driven ball. when you get a hard driven ball, you use less energy, because if you use more energy, it may go out of your control. when given a light easy ball, you use more energy so the ball will go farther liberos are mostly responsible for hard defense and really covering for hitters when hitters go for a block or hit. also make sure to cover you setter as their blocking as well. being libero isn’t always about being defense though. being libero is also being the loudest in your team. your communication is a big part of playing libero. you tell others who’s ball it is if it’s between two players. you might call “cover” to cover hitters or setters while their at the net. telling others to be ready if a ball is out of reach from maybe a missed block. you also want to make sure you have positive energy. if you miss a ball, take a deep breath and keep going, cause it will bring your team down seeing libero ( who has the most positive energy and keeping others up ) down. even if your not being played and are being benched, still be cheering your teammates on. that is one big thing club teams look at when trying out i hope this helps because my first year of club i didn’t know most these tips and wasn’t played as libero because i wasn’t loud or good at communicating or wasn’t as agile as i could have been. you got this! ♡
Yas! I want to become a Libero since I’m pretty short and my greatest strength is passing and serve receiving 😅 I will work hard to accomplish my goal!!
For everyone who hasn’t played volleyball don’t expect to be good on your first try it takes years to master skills for any position ( even pro volleyball players practiced for years to be where they are now but even they still have things to improve on). Be willing to try new things and if something doesn’t work out for you don’t give up or be discouraged. I wish you all good luck on tryouts.
I have never played volleyball before and I am going into 10th grade but I reallyyyy want to start playing now and become a liber it sounds like the best position for me specifically
8th grade year I’ll be ready to play volleyball at my school and I’m soooo excited for it some people say I only talk about it if I don’t get libero I’ll see about middle blocker watch out noya or tsuki I’m coming for you 😊
I always felt like taking just a bit of time to learn chest for this position! And it’s so weird cause it’s understandable. In chess it’s all about reading the other player and strategy. Knowing where the chest pice is going and what to do next. It’s such a simple game to learn and I 100% recommend taking a little bit of time to learn it. It’s helped me a lot with reading the ball as a Libero
Thank you very much Coach koko! Im going back to school again and I was thinking about joining Volleyball and I really wanna be a libero, this help alot thank you
Most sports I play, I'm on backline defense. I knew from the start that I'm not very good at being up front, so it looks like a fun position to play. Also, after I saw highlights of Dawn Macandili, I was so hyped. She inspired me so much, but I don't mind playing any position that I'm given.
Honestly ive changed basketabll so when its summer im gonna join the volleyball club because ive been into haikyuu for alot. And im honestly short and im fast at running (when concentrating on one thing) and i could be a really good libero for vb so im very thankful for this channel.
I just learned the dive! I'm so happy rn! Also since i just joined a new team since the last one sucked i am going to wait a while before asking to be a libero, agin thank you for the info and tips!
my coach just told me there’s a good chance of me being the libero next year. im excited but i’m nervous bc i started off being a front row hitter and blocker.
(i’m 5”1’) i’m a short guy, the shortest guy i know, and as a libero can confirm that you feel kinda special when you wear a different colored jersey/uniform.
Hey so can make a video of like The names of each position and what they each do and like tips on how to become any of the each positions pleaseeee!! You make awesome volleyball videos that have helped me, and I feel like I could use some more explaining pleaseee. Thanksssss🤪
after watching Haikyuu i got inspired and got really interested into volleyball so i started watching actual matches and compilations on youtube and now i want to try volleyball and be a libero but our school doesnt have a volleyball club and i dont have much experience with volleyball (i did try it when i was like 9-10 yrs old but i didnt continued bc i keep thinking the ball would hit my face and id die yes im that dramatic as a kid--) so yep.. :')
I haven’t played volleyball in so long that I feel insecure of my skills now. I hope my senior year won’t be so bad, as I desperately missed being on a team and having that in-game adrenaline. Needless to say I’m excited to be back in the game soon :))
after watching haikyuu, i regret not putting much effort into volleyball during pe class. so when school opens again, im going to try out for the volleyball club

I’ve been waiting for this video for the longest time now!! Thank you. 💛
BaByDiva2love are you a libero, or just a koko volley fan?
This is exactly what i needed! Thank you so much, Coach Koko!
Cursed Sin isn't she great!
Ci Michel She really is!!!
I wanna be a libero... because... Nishinoya Yuu inspired me to do it 🥺💖
Same😭
So excited to start training to be a libero! Im so pumped, I'm starting my training after my last school week.
I'm a libero and I love trying to save, and dig the ball
I just wanted to learn some tips for being a libero but this woman's vibe is immaculateI think I might have to become a regular
I’ve always loved Volleyball but I never thought I could be good at it so I never bothered trying. Lately I watched Haikyuu and it inspired me to follow my dream and practice to be the best I can. ^-^
I still suck and I’m still very out of shape but I’m working on it and your videos as well as the anime is helping me learn more about the roles and how to do basic things like passes. I’m still learning but my goal is to be at least moderately good at most basic things by the end of summer (when school starts for me).
I have severe social anxiety and going outside is really hard for me but I’ve been going outside to practice by myself in the backyard more and more triggering both my anxiety and allergies. It feels amazing to have something inspiring me so much I can get past my fears and do all this. I’ve even been working out regularly so that I can get in better shape.
The roles I’ve been interested in the most are libero and spiker, though I only know things about spikors from the anime so I gotta learn about it a bit more before I decide if I’m actually interested. I’m more on the short side (5’2) so that might make everything more difficult for me but I’m determined to make my skills make up for my height one day.
I’ve even been thinking of joining the Volleyball team at my school next year even though I know it would be a huge struggle as a FtM trans guy to get in the boys team.
All in all I’m not good at this (at all) but I’m determined to get better and I hope my comment can inspire someone else too. >^
Madd Mika im actually in the same position as you. I don’t get out much so I’m clearly out of shape and my stamina is soo low which makes it worse. Haikyuu also inspired me to play volleyball, of course the libero position stood out the most to me because its the one who keeps the ball in play. What I learned from the anime is that “It’s not game over if the ball hasn’t hit the floor yet.” I’ve been trying to practice my receives, we dont have an isolated place nor do i have anyone to practice with so I can only practice by myself just by tossing it to a wall and receiving it. Only problem is that my stamina is way too low so i get tired easily :( I’m also really short (4’11) so thats one of the reasons why I chose the libero position 😅
Aki Zuki Hey this might sound weird coming from a stranger in UA-cam comments but would you like to be friends?
I’d love to have someone who also loves Volleyball (and Haikyuu) be my friend!
That and I feel we can relate to each other.
Haha sorry if I’m being weird here...
Madd Mika nah it’s not that weird, sure we can be friends. There aren’t really people who have the same interests like me so it’s hard finding someone to talk to about your likings. I’m also introverted so my socialising skills aren’t so good.. hehe..
Aki Zuki Same here do you have Instagram or Discord? Those are easy places to find me but if you don’t you can just tell me what place you have and I should have it.
Madd Mika i think I have insta, but I only use to to watch haikyuu stuff lol. Tell me ur user and I can follow u
im a libero at my school, and im pretty tall. i think after a week they realized- i really like passing. so they put me as a libero and im glad, i really like this role. :D
I ask my teacher if there was Volleyball team in our school because I want to be a Libero she said she's not sure and we talk about volleyball then I learn that she was a Libero before! And she said I would be a great Libero that give me so much confidence and inspiration to learn more about volleyball I'm so happy!
My friend convinced me to try volleyball. I'm pretty short for my grade, and my vertical is not good what-so-ever, so I wouldn't be good for offense. I'm pretty fast I must say, and she thinks I would be the best at libero. I'm going to practice with her for the first time tomorrow, and this gave me quite a bit of motivation! Gonna be watching this video over and over.
Hi, Coach Koko, I love your videos. Your videos are very useful and have really helped me become confident in playing volleyball. Keep up the good work.
Well, I have wanted to become a libero but I am literally the tallest player on my team, and one of the best attackers so the libero position won't be easy for me to get. Secondly, I can't dive properly, I am a decent passer (not great, but decent), and when I do have to get to the ball by falling on the ground I am slow, because once again I am tall, therefore shorter players can easily get to the ball much faster. Also, I love attacking, and blocking. It feels so great to get a kill, or a big block therefore I wouldn't want to give that up. The position I play is middle blocker, but I really want to try playing right-side hitter, because I am lefty and I think I will be able to get more kills, and blocks.
Sounds like you're a good fit for middle, but you don't love it?
You are officially my favorite volleyball UA-camr, you’re so nice and you give a lot of help ❤️ thank u !!
I'm a Setter, Yet i still love learning about other positions 😁
I really want to play volley ball and be a libero this video was so helpful ❤️
I’m new to volleyball and want to tryout for high school. I honestly do feel intimidated by the fact that probably all the players are well skilled while I’m a newbie still learning. Ever since I started practicing, I notice that my strongest skill was passing sooooo I was like...be a Libero!
THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS WILL MAKE MY LIBERO LIFE EASIER :)
yes im a libero!! tysm this helped i know what to practice now!!
I so wanna be one but I only learned since January of 2023 but this girl on the team complements me a lot and says how I would be so good on the team so this year I’m trying out 🙀
Honestly, I’ve always been into volleyball, but after not making the club team in November 2019, I was devastated. I went to the clinics that they invited me to, but still no spark. Until, back in early April, I started watching Haikyuu. I’m obsessed with it. And now that spark has been ignited once again. The only difference is, I’m not comparing myself to other players at my school, and only focussing on my abilities and getting better. I now have people that I can practice with and people who have given me advice. It’s really thanks to Haikyuu, and my best friend for recommending it, that I wanted to play again.
Your videos are always so informative and help me to grow as a player! Thanks for the great content as always Koko💜
A R agreed!
if you put in the work and effort and push yourself, you can be a great libero. some tips she didn’t cover for being libero that i use as a libero:
as a libero, your always in serve receive, and when your in position waiting for the other team to pass the ball over make sure your feet open a little wider than shoulder length, bend your knees, and put most or all your weight in your toes and the front of your feet.
when playing defense, you want all your motions going forward, that is why most weight is on your toes. you don’t want to be passing like at the floor or have hands on the ground for that ball, you want the moving forward.
really dig dig dig for that hard driven ball. when you get a hard driven ball, you use less energy, because if you use more energy, it may go out of your control. when given a light easy ball, you use more energy so the ball will go farther
liberos are mostly responsible for hard defense and really covering for hitters when hitters go for a block or hit. also make sure to cover you setter as their blocking as well.
being libero isn’t always about being defense though. being libero is also being the loudest in your team. your communication is a big part of playing libero. you tell others who’s ball it is if it’s between two players. you might call “cover” to cover hitters or setters while their at the net. telling others to be ready if a ball is out of reach from maybe a missed block. you also want to make sure you have positive energy. if you miss a ball, take a deep breath and keep going, cause it will bring your team down seeing libero ( who has the most positive energy and keeping others up ) down. even if your not being played and are being benched, still be cheering your teammates on. that is one big thing club teams look at when trying out
i hope this helps because my first year of club i didn’t know most these tips and wasn’t played as libero because i wasn’t loud or good at communicating or wasn’t as agile as i could have been. you got this! ♡
Yas! I want to become a Libero since I’m pretty short and my greatest strength is passing and serve receiving 😅 I will work hard to accomplish my goal!!
Because of you I made my team today!!!!!!!!!!!
I am already a libero, I still watched it lol! Keep it up!!
I used to be DS but my coach has told me I’m going to be libero this year.
I came here to become the next Nishinoya and i love this video.. my quote will be ROLLING THUNDERR
I have been wanting to be a libero sense when I started,(two seasons ago,lol) I'm training hard and doing my best to improve😁❤
For everyone who hasn’t played volleyball don’t expect to be good on your first try it takes years to master skills for any position ( even pro volleyball players practiced for years to be where they are now but even they still have things to improve on). Be willing to try new things and if something doesn’t work out for you don’t give up or be discouraged. I wish you all good luck on tryouts.
I have never played volleyball before and I am going into 10th grade but I reallyyyy want to start playing now and become a liber it sounds like the best position for me specifically
Thank you so much! I’ve always wanted this😊
I've started volleyball this year and I have a game tomorrow and I needed tips
8th grade year I’ll be ready to play volleyball at my school and I’m soooo excited for it some people say I only talk about it if I don’t get libero I’ll see about middle blocker watch out noya or tsuki I’m coming for you 😊
I always felt like taking just a bit of time to learn chest for this position! And it’s so weird cause it’s understandable. In chess it’s all about reading the other player and strategy. Knowing where the chest pice is going and what to do next. It’s such a simple game to learn and I 100% recommend taking a little bit of time to learn it. It’s helped me a lot with reading the ball as a Libero
Thank you very much Coach koko! Im going back to school again and I was thinking about joining Volleyball and I really wanna be a libero, this help alot thank you
yes! thank you for this!!!!
You’re so welcome!
Libero is the PERFECT position for me. I'm a center defender in soccer and I don't want anyone getting past me! Lol 💪
Most sports I play, I'm on backline defense. I knew from the start that I'm not very good at being up front, so it looks like a fun position to play. Also, after I saw highlights of Dawn Macandili, I was so hyped. She inspired me so much, but I don't mind playing any position that I'm given.
recently started volleyball, practiced getting good at getting to the hit and im starting to practice aiming. 4'9 13 year old BTW
Honestly ive changed basketabll so when its summer im gonna join the volleyball club because ive been into haikyuu for alot. And im honestly short and im fast at running (when concentrating on one thing) and i could be a really good libero for vb so im very thankful for this channel.
Oh my gosh this is the most perfect channel and video I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much for these tips and hope you stay safe!
Angela Chacko are you a big volleyball fan?
Ci Michel yeas I actually am! It’s an amazing and fun sport that I’ve been wanting to play for the past few years!
Hey coach Koko im trying out for volleyball and your videos have helped me so much! I might be a libero!!
I just learned the dive! I'm so happy rn! Also since i just joined a new team since the last one sucked i am going to wait a while before asking to be a libero, agin thank you for the info and tips!
Can you do one about Setters please?
So I’ve been in a back row for ever but I’m gonna work on getting aggressive and I’m working toward that position
my coach just told me there’s a good chance of me being the libero next year. im excited but i’m nervous bc i started off being a front row hitter and blocker.
When you are a left side and a GOAT at tipping on the team but want to dive but your 5”5 in middle school✌🏼😂✌🏼
Exactly! I’m also 5’4 in middle school.. I was still accepted as a libero though
EchøFøx I didn’t but I like our libero she is good at what she does and she is SUPER small like 4”6 and 60lb😂
Thank you for the information! I needed this cause I wanted to be a libero
I actually got DS at Heat and I’m just trying to find how to get better at it ! Thank you!
Yay I’m checking out all of the position so I can learn
(i’m 5”1’) i’m a short guy, the shortest guy i know, and as a libero can confirm that you feel kinda special when you wear a different colored jersey/uniform.
i love being libero best position
Great video!! Subscribed! Would you be able to do Setter Next?
Hey so can make a video of like The names of each position and what they each do and like tips on how to become any of the each positions pleaseeee!! You make awesome volleyball videos that have helped me, and I feel like I could use some more explaining pleaseee. Thanksssss🤪
Can u do more of these type of videos with different positions?
vanessa what position are you? What would you like to see in a video?
I'm still not sure what position I want to be because I'm in middle school so I want to know more about each of the positions
@@Vvsien ok cool! Well I'll add that to my list of videos to make, hopefully it helps! Thank you for the idea!
after watching Haikyuu i got inspired and got really interested into volleyball so i started watching actual matches and compilations on youtube and now i want to try volleyball and be a libero but our school doesnt have a volleyball club and i dont have much experience with volleyball (i did try it when i was like 9-10 yrs old but i didnt continued bc i keep thinking the ball would hit my face and id die yes im that dramatic as a kid--) so yep.. :')
Can you make a video about everything you need to know about volleyball if your a beginner? I don’t know very much. 😉
I have a great video on this! Check my playlists on Volleyball Tips :)
I am Carey short 4ft sumpthing so I think lebaro would be the best spot for me
I not only want to be a libero.
I NEED to be a libero.
I'm 5'1... ;-;
I'm 5'3 as a wing spiker, there's nothing wrong with being 5'1. if you keep jumping, your hight and jumping strength will improve
I haven’t played volleyball in so long that I feel insecure of my skills now. I hope my senior year won’t be so bad, as I desperately missed being on a team and having that in-game adrenaline. Needless to say I’m excited to be back in the game soon :))
kooh don't feel insecure, everyone is in the same boat!
I’m my Middle School volleyball libero and I want to become the best player on the court. Please make a video about that.
THANKYOU KOKO!!!!!!!!
after watching haikyuu, i regret not putting much effort into volleyball during pe class. so when school opens again, im going to try out for the volleyball club
