Sessions will consist of footwork training, hand development, decision making, ball placement, 1st, 2nd & 3rd tempo sets, conditioning and much more. These sessions will also focus on how to run an offense and leadership skills to become an effective setter.

FAQs? Do I need to attend Session #1, Session #2 and Session #3 of the Elite Setting Academy Sessions? Will I learn something different at each session?

Answer: The Elite Setting Academy Sessions 1, 2 and 3 will each be structured around the individual abilities of the participants attending each session. So yes you are highly likely to learn something new at each session. Although similar setting skills, techniques, strategies, etc. will be addressed in each of three Elite Setting Academy Sessions, returning attendess will be challenged to improve on the skills learned earlier. Once a player learns great techniques in setting, the goal is for the repetition to create muscle memory and great habits so setting become second nature.
