Back Row Attack
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Bx1Eemczxc
I hope you are able to view this YouTube video Forward to 30:25. Is this a Back Row attack violation? Libero is in front of the attack line. Contacts the ball with 2 hands over the head. The next resulting hit is attacked from above the net into the opponents side of the net |

I know there's some case play that allows some "overhand contact" by the Libero to be considered not a set -- but I would think this would be a relatively rare occurrence. |
Libero (maybe setting) & BRA
If that was a set, then it would be a double hit. But it's first contact. Lets call it what it is (1st contact) and let it go, play continues.

The following elements appear to be present in this play...
- libero is positioned on or in front of attack line - libero sets ball using overhand finger action - next hit (attack) takes place while the ball is entirely above the height of the net - attack is completed (ball completely crosses the vertical plane of the net) As a result, the proper signal sequence for the R1 is... - Award point to appropriate team - Signal illegal back row attack on offending team - Point to libero to indicate the violation is a result of her set This looks like a good call to me. |
Looks like a good call to me.
|
Yup, good call.
|
I agree. Illegal BRA. This is where a good R2 is able to explain to the coach why the call was what it was, as the R1 is explaining to the captain.

Something else I noticed on this video. So much for the lines being visible. You can hardly make out the sideline and endline when they cross inside the 3 point line on the basketball court. Uggg.
