Set PES 294
Stage: Intermediate.
Stage Characteristics: Evaluating the first player, the overall form was good, hands formed a "window" for proper reception of the ball. Wrists, arms and fingers were all involved.
What to Change: The hands could be a little closer to the player's face, in the range of 6 inches or so and perhaps lining up the forhead more with the ball would help as well.
Cue: Reminding the player "Lineup your forehead to the ball"
Setting
Stage: Intermediate
Stage Characteristic: Setter has soft hands and sets the ball from her forehead. She makes the diamond with her hands to catch the ball and set it up.
What to Change: Everything looked pretty solid in regards to the set. She needs to remember to have a strong base and use soft hands when receiving the ball.
Cue: Soft hands, strong wrists
