🤹 HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR SKILL LEVEL

NEW RANKING SYSTEM:

Upper BB (3.0-3.9)
At the Upper BB level players should be able to effectively play their position, not just generally know how. They should be executing the core skills of their position consistently (70-80% of plays.) Specific positions have different requirements, for instance an Upper BB Libero has a higher expectation for passing than other positions while Middle Blockers have a higher expectation for blocking. At this level the game pace starts to increase so players must know where they are supposed to be covering on the court in a traditional offense/defense.

Upper BB hitters are expected to be able to hit the ball downwards/with power, and as such any player playing front row is expected to be able to block.

A Level (4.0-5.5)
A level players have the skills needed to play at a high level. They are in excellent physical condition and can do all the skills required of their position consistently. Key passing positions (Liberos and Outside Hitters) are giving a good (2-3 point) passes 75-85% of the time. Front row players are able to both effectively hit (positive hitting percentage) and block (disrupt opposing attacks). Setters can effectively run all options on offense from various parts of the court.

If you are unsure of where you fall in this new ranking system. Please check the slides here to view the expectations.
