About this play
A middle blocker's attack off one foot, like a basketball lay-up. The middle starts in front of the setter as if for a quick, then runs along the net behind them and takes off from the left foot near the right antenna. The setter pushes the ball low and fast along the net to meet them. Their middle blocker has to chase sideways and their outside blocker is set for the opposite, so the slide is often hit against one late hand. It is a staple of the women's game and the reason a right-side blocker cannot stand still.
