Perimeter defense for co-ed childrens team


Question
I coach a co-ed club and have just started teaching my kids a perimeter defense.  What I'm not clear on is how the setter rotates if she starts in the 1 position, and how she switches to the set from each position.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer
Good afternoon Carmen!
Welcome to www.allexperts.com.  
Q1:  How does the setter rotate if she starts in the 1 position?
I'm not sure if I understand you.  But, I think I do.  After being in the 1, she will rotate to the 6, then the 5.  Just like baseball...when the person on base behind you is forced to run, you must as well.  She's "forced" to.  
Q2:  How does the setter switch to the set from each position.  
a) If the setter's teammate is serving, this is easy.  She merely just waits for the contact of the serve, then moves to the right side back row position.
b) If an opponent is serving, this is not so easy.  She must stay in her "spot" until the opponent touches her serves, then hustle to target so she can set the ball, then move to her right side back row position.  There are several serve receive formation "short cuts" that coaches will implement so that their setter has an easier time of it.  I can probably find them, and -- if I do -- can send you those shortcuts, if you with to see them.  

If any reader would like a copy of them, my email address is [email protected].  
I have a 3-person formation when running a 6-2 (for any age group....if you can pass with 3) and a 4-person formation when running a 4-2 (mainly for rookies/youngsters).  

Hope all is well with you.
