Question

How is dig performed?

Answer 1

Following are the ways a dig can be performed:

1. Positioning: The player sits low on the ground, legs bent, arms extended, and hands together.
2. Platform: Using their forearms, the player forms a flat "platform" by bringing their hands together and locking their wrists.
3. Contact with the Ball: The ball should contact your forearms, right above the wrists. This will absorb the ball's force and direct it upward to a setter or another player.
4. Body Movement: A correct dig entails raising the legs slightly when the ball makes contact, which helps control its trajectory without swinging the arms.
