[QUOTE="GTJackets, post: 666363, member: 759"] I know it's far from the same, but one of my favorite memories from my days as a high school girls VB coach. We went into the gym to play our big rivals and the reigning region champs. About mid way through the opening game of the match, the score was still tight. They were not killing the third shot, but had decided to roll their third shot right over my blockers heads into the gap right behind them. After they scored a few points that way, my captains looked over at me right before I called a TO and said "we need to back off the net and stop trying to block if they aren't going to hit it." I just smiled and nodded. Blockers continued to play the net but then would drop 2-3 steps off right before their set. It was a strategy we had done several times over my years when a team decided they couldn't finish points at the net. If they don't want to swing, we'll take the easy pass over and let one of our hitters finish. There's something extremely satisfying as coach in seeing your team recognize what's going on and take that leadership role on the field/court and make the necessary adjustments while you get to sit and watch.
