Yes, the libero can serve in one rotation position in college, high school, middle school, and club levels all throughout the USA. After serving in that position, they can only serve in that same position for the rest of the game.

When you jump up to spike the ball, the best position is slightly sideways and in the “archer” position. This means you have one arm out in front of you to aim and steady yourself, while the other arm is bent at the elbow, and your hand is near your ear or above your head.

The libero can not be team captain or game captain. The libero must where a uniform (or jacket for the re-designation libero) whose jersey must at least contrast in color with the rest of the team members.

Let’s first start off with the positions in volleyball. The positions in volleyball are: outside hitter, right side hitter, middle, libero, defensive specialist (DS) and setter. Here we will be explaining each one of the volleyball positions and each player’s role in every position.

Here you can see that player 2 is still in front of player 1, player 3 is in front of player 6, and player 4 is in front of player 5. Also, player 6 is still between players 5 and 1, and player 3 is still between players 4 and 2. Here is a more complicated serve receive setup:

Players are rotating clockwise on the court after winning the rally after the opponent’s serve. Players have rotational positions (position 5, position 2 etc.) on the court from which they are allowed to move to their playing positions (opposite, middle hitter etc.) after the serve when appropriate.

The thing that sets the defensive specialist apart from other volleyball positions is their ability to substitute out any player on the court. This will count against the team’s total of 12 substitutions. The defensive specialist traditionally focuses on ball control and passing and works well with the libero.
