In volleyball setting is a very hard part of the game for people to grasp. Then when you throw the beach volleyball set into the equation it gets even harder. You can tell if someone knows how to play volleyball by seeing one of their sets. Outdoor setting is much more gentle than indoor setting. An indoor volleyball set is illegal in beach volleyball.
What are the differences from setting a volleyball on the beach versus indoor?
The biggest difference is that in outdoor setting you can't double the ball which means the ball will not be spinning at all when it leaves your hands. Refs will sometimes notice a ball rotating and call the set bad but for the most part the ref will look at how the ball is handled to see if it's illegal or not.
Beach Volleyball Setting Tips
Open your hands wide because you are going to be grabbing the outside of the volleyball. Keep you hands, fingers, wrist and arms lose. You don't ever want stiff fingers while setting the volleyball. This is part of the sand volleyball rules that you must know in order to successfully compete. You want to let your arms cushion the ball even more than your wrists. You can actually do a clean set without moving the wrists if you bend at the elbows to absorb the ball.
