Volleyball Setter Training Gloves, How They Work

One of the best training aids for volleyball is the setter glove. These training gloves can help players learn all about the right finger placement in order to hit the ball properly and not let it come in contact with the palm while setting.

The design of the glove is such that it has a button on the palm and this causes the volleyball to be mishandled when it’s set improperly. 

How do they work?

When you set the ball in a game, the contact you make on it is important because it allows the player volleying it to hit it with the right power and time their jump well. The setting technique requires the ball to be lifted with the help of the fingers and wrist alone.

Here’s how the gloves help:

  • Strengthening the hands
    These gloves work effectively as they can be used to strengthen the fingers, hands and also develop the necessary setting technique.
  • Eliminating contact 
    The gloves also eliminate too much hand contact in order to help teach the right way to set. 
  • All skill-levels 
    These gloves can be used during practice-setting drills for players with varying skill levels.
  • Hand placement 
    The glove design has the button right in the center of the palm that reinforces the proper placement of the hand while setting.

These gloves can make it easier for you to improve your volleyball setting and get those important points during crucial moments in the game. Ready, set, SPIKE!
