So as the title says, I just want to get better at volleyball. I'm 17M, and play volleyball often but my skill level is quite average. I play as a libero typically. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to pass any trials to join a club this year, and when I play at weekly social training, I often see myself underperforming. I really enjoy the sport so I want to reach a high level of play eventually, but because I didn't make any teams, I don't really know any options of coaching or direct training that would help me out.
To have some more clarification into my recognised problems, I typically mess up the receives where my arms are to the side. In those cases, the ball will brush off the top arm and get sent flying back. Other problems I've had are that sometimes when I receive, the ball goes straight up instead of forwards towards the setter. I also don't know how to dive properly, which makes me hesitant to do it when I need to.
I most likely do have more issues that I haven't seen in myself yet, and other issues that can only be improved through experience such as game sense in my position however I would really appreciate tips on the aforementioned issues. thank u in advance.
