What is 'Yankee Play' or a 'Yankee Tournament'?
I've never seen any colleges or universities that have hitters shorter than 5'10. Some liberos are 5'8. Yikes! That doesn't leave a lot of hope for the rest of us! Sorry!ya they recruit midgets too all they care is if u got talent
Will doing squats make me slower in running?
Of course not! If you can hit, they want you. I play outside hitter myself, and trust me, if you can jump, they will get you. But you gotta be talented, because colleges only offer half scholarships now. You have to share a full scholarship with another team mate. I wish you luck in getting that!! Hope you get to go where you want.Are there any free or cheap open play volleyball courts in the baltimore area?

Does anyone know of any excellent volleyball camps in ohio? prefierably under $150?
Some colleges and HS only have front row hitters 5' 6" but most have them 5'8" minumum. The reason is for blocking and they can get higher over the block.hey lets talk bout grnd reality,see it is always an advantage to hav a tall player over a shorter one because of various reaons lik the blockin ability,the ease of spikin n stuff but if even a shorter player is really gud n is not a problem to the team n can cover what he lacks for height in the jump n the effort they wil be picked in n for the limit u hav askd there are no strict rules on the limit k.even a spiker who is 5.5 who can hit harder n jump higher than the person who is six n can block really wel he may get a +ve nod from the selection team however there is a tendancy to pick up the players who are taller thats al so that they stand an advantage over shorter ones thats al.moreover the team with taller players givs a betr appearance to the opposin team n there is a psychological element also.
I'm 5'9'' and my height is the reason I'm not playing varsity for a school somewhere. But then again, I'm a guy, so I'm short by around six inches for a setter.

If I can play Volleyball but today I couldnt at all what should I do?
Height usually is a big deal. But if they see that you got skill and talent then your size wont mean a thing. Dont ever worry about the whole size matter, worry about your game!Who are the band members from panic at the disco?
At the NCAA Division 1 level, it's hard to imagine recruiting hitters shorter than 5'8", though there's not an absolute rule. It's more of a sliding scale--the better your skill set, the more leeway you get on height (or lack thereof).Realistically speaking, while hitters can make up for the lack of height by having a great vertical, height comes more into play for blocking. Taller blockers already have their hands in a better blocking position without jumping, and can therefore make up for being out of position easier. Shorter blockers that rely more on jumping have a lot lower margin of error when it comes to reading the setter/hitter. Get caught flatfooted once and the opposing hitter will have completely uncontested hit. The ability to block is one of the primary reasons why teams would like to have taller setters in addition to taller hitters.
But as has been said, height is only on variable. Other variables include your individual skill and jumping ability as well as the college you are interested in and the level of competition it faces.
