The Volleyball By Design Podcast

In this episode, we go back into the fault with an interview I did with the Head Coach of the University of Alberta, Brock Davidiuk, as he is an expert setting coach. In this episode, he shares so much technical aspects of setting and provides amazing insights to the position. He talks about:

The technical principles - Feet, Hands, Body & Eyes 

Principle of a live environment 

Stages of setting 

Youth setting to college setting 

College setting to Pro setting 

Setter hitter relationship 

And so much more

This episode dives into the intangibles of volleyball — the non-skill, non-system factors that directly impact game play, lineup decisions, and winning. We break down the habits, awareness, and behaviours that coaches need to be aware of but don’t always explicitly coach, and why they matter so much on match day. Some things we cover are: 

Being surprised on the court 

Coming down from the block 

Switching 

Setter Coverage 

Screening 

Communication 

Engaging with the Ref 

Attention to detail from athletes 

And a few more key concepts
