Libero

What's a Libero?

Many non volleyball players always question what a libero is. A libero is usually the best passer on the team. A libero normally wears a different color jersey from the other players on the team. A libero also only plays back row, since she's only a passer. Many people seem to think that since a libero only plays back row that they can't hit, but they can. There is such a thing called back row hits. Usually, the opposing will try and avoid hitting the ball at the libero, but most times that doesn't always happen. When it doesn't, the libero can get a good pass to the setter, and the setter can then set up the hitter and the hitter can get a kill! Well at least, that's what we're aiming for. The libero in the game of volleyball, is very important. The team is counting on you to be a leader, and get the perfect pass to the setter and take charge. When you don't fulfill those expectations every single time, don't give up! You will always have another chance to get at it!
