Yesterday we looked at a team profile of Transition Strength. In February, we looked more at First Ball strength or weakness profiles and discussed that a main consideration is: how many rallies at practice are going to start with a serve and how many are going to start with another type of entry?
Joe, I like this one, what do you do about missed serves?
Missed serve gives a free ball or easy serve entry from a coach, but you still have to earn the First Ball Kill.
Thank you Joe :) Always fun and informative to read your posts!
When playing 1-way how does the serving team "win" if the points only come from FBK for receiving team?
Serving team gets points any time they win the rally at all.
So most likely you would start with the serving team down 21-22 or 21-23.
Serving team serves the ball in. If they win the rally, they get the point.
If receiving team gets a First Ball Kill, the receiving team gets a point.
If the receiving team wins, but not on a FBK, neither team gets a point.
Does that make sense?
