  • This is me reacting to a video produced by ‪@themckibbinbrothers‬ of our High School Team, Punahou School, against a high school team from Japan in 2006! This was a crazy match to play in and a fun one to react to! I hope you enjoy and don't forget to like, comment, and ask questions if you have them! Yay volleyball!
    By the way, if anyone knows which Japanese high school this is can you please comment below! Thank you!

As a Non-volleyball player, you really educate us fans about this amazing sport! Have a great year playing in Poland! Please stay healthy, safe and injury-free!

    I remember seeing this video when it first came out on the mckibbin brothers channel and instantly thinking it would be super exciting to see you reacting to it!!! I'm pretty sure the team is a choice team from a specific prefecture and not from one club/highschool, but I can't remember where specifically

      Honestly this isn't a real clickbait because the japanese highschool team they actually play somewhat like haikyuu because of their lack of height, so they need to run multiple plays with crossing patterns to balance out the height diference

  • @fabiom65
    @fabiom65 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ive played volleyball in high school but it was a very simple thing with only the 2 in the front attacking and a hit from the 6 every now and then. In professional level, does the setter communicates who he's gonna pass to and the ones we see jumping are just to fake the block or are all the players constantly ready and jumping just in case the setter decides to send the ball to them?

    • @ErikShojivolleyball
      @ErikShojivolleyball  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      normally all the players will go and run the route in case the setter sets them. the setter won’t tell the hitters who they will set.
