Set Set Tip Messy Hit Dig
Having travelled all over the world to play volleyball I learned that all touches well all types of touches are good for your game.
Even if you have a messy hit or a messy touch not all referees will call it so I'm not saying don't be technical, but I am saying you can work on contacting and touching the ball with all your body parts because volleyball can get messy as well.
About once a week or once every two weeks I like to work on unpredictable "messy" stuff so when that ball comes at you really fast and you may not have time to create a perfect pass with your platform you have practiced how to react with quick reflexes in order to get the ball up.

Serving slang is not just about individual techniques; it also relates to overall game strategy. A coach might instruct a player to serve a "short serve" or a "deep serve" to target specific areas of the opponent's court or exploit weaknesses in their serve receive formation.
Ari, my private training client and I are working specifically on serving on jump float cross court serves ...short to Zone 2
There's so much we work on to get to this point where she can contact the ball with
- the same toss height and same toss location
- the same armswing speed
- the same timing for when her serving hand contacts the ball
- the middle of the hand contacting the middle of the ball every single time
- getting use to watching her serving hand contact the ball at the highest point of her jump ...before she starts to land
- and finally contacting the ball in the precise spot on the ball so it goes where the coach wants the player to put it so in this case ..a short serve in the farthest short right corner on the court also called Zone 2.
