Volley RotationsPosition explorer
Pick your system and position, then step through each moment of the rally in all six rotations. You're the ringed player.
5-1: one setter sets in all six rotations. Three front-row attackers when the setter is in the back row, two when they are in front.
Team settings
Since 2025 the FIVB only checks the receiving team's order. Some leagues still check the serving team too, so check yours.

You pass. The shaded area is yours: call the ball early and take everything that lands in it.
More detail
- Front row: you may block, and attack from anywhere.
- At the serve hit you must be in front of Setter (zone 1); right of Middle 1 (zone 3). Your feet count, not your body.
