John Dunning Training a Setter Trailer

Core Biomechanical & Tactical Principles

• Setters must establish a repeatable footwork rhythm that gets their feet stopped and body balanced before the ball reaches their hands.
• Consistent hand position high above the forehead disguises set direction until the final wrist extension.
• Train setters to project calm, confident body language so hitters trust their play calling during out-of-system and late-set situations.
