Hi Bob, 
 
       Thank you for the reply.  I appreciate it. 
 
       I completely agree that it is largely a fool's errand to attempt to teach alignment to inexperienced volleyball officials.  When I am running clinics for new/newer officials, I explicitly forbid discussion of that topic!  There are so many more important things for the new official to master before worrying about alignments. 
 
       I should have better asked the question, which is what techniques/strategies have been used successfully for officials that don't have any playing/coaching experience (but aren't brand new to officiating)? 
 
Thanks again, 
        Tim
