Summarize:

In most sports, a player's position determines their location on the field or court. In volleyball, however, each player moves in a clockwise direction prior to every serve. It's important that you and your teammates stay on top of the ongoing rotation and become confident playing from every possible position.  Your position in the rotation is not the same as your player position. Defensive players, for instance, will remain on the defensive until the rotation shifts them to the front of the court.  Playing out of the correct rotation could earn you a fault or even cause you to lose a point. Sharpening your own technique will only get you so far. In order to increase your scoring potential during competitive play, it will be necessary to practice as a unit with your entire team. Ultimately, teamwork is more important when it comes to consistent scoring than having the hardest strike or the best block.  Be sure to incorporate both offensive and defensive drills into your practice to get some experience playing both sides of the net.  If possible, break into smaller teams and face off in a scrimmage to simulate competitive play and enhance your ability to come out on top in fast-paced rallies. Regular practice is key to maintaining and developing your skills, both as an individual player and as a team. A good coach will keep you on a tight practice schedule and look for ways to bring the best out of each player. Teams who practice hard play hard. Treat your practice sessions with the same seriousness you would a championship-level game.
Pay close attention to your rotation. Drill team plays constantly. Practice frequently.
