Brittany Abercrombie Opposite Training Series

Versatility is the hallmark of an opposite hitter. Equally adept at offense and defense, opposites must launch powerful attacks, dig hard angle and line shots, act as a backup setter on out-of-system balls, and partner with middles to put up strong blocks.

Becoming proficient at every skill is a challenge that requires a special training regimen. With the Brittany Abercrombie Opposite Training Series, you’ll learn everything you need to know to develop your opposites into point-producing hitters and rally-extending defenders. Inside this comprehensive course, you’ll get 33 information-packed videos covering skill development, technique, footwork, playing strategies and drills—delivered personally by one of today’s best opposite hitters.

Topics include:

• What move to use when the middle blocker is late
• How to defend the cross-court hit and thwart the opponent’s opposite
• When to terminate the rally rather than funnel the ball to defenders
• What to do with balls dug directly to the opposite
• How to use eye sequencing when blocking
• Which actions to take on defense to counter a ‘1’ or a ‘Slide’ set
• What shot to use if the set is too far inside the court
• How to defend against an outside hitter attacking with a ‘Rip,’ ‘Hut’ or ‘2’
