This drill for left-side defense focuses on the angle block, where the blocker takes away the angle hit with a strong, penetrating left hand while the digger covers line. As Holly explains, if the blocker drops off the net into the angle, the digger has to balance the court by sliding over to the right and playing defense to the right of the blocker who has dropped.
Targets for the transitioning attackers are the short cut, angle, deep middle and line.
