This comment came from one of SA volleyball’s favourite sons, Alexis Lebedew, who last i heard was coaching for a college somewhere in the US…
Interesting story. My recollection is that the term came from America back in the 80s. But I wouldn’t dare argue with Eldo! In the end what you call it is irrelevent (though obviously cues can help as a teaching tool). The most important thing to remember is that the position you should be in is the most likely position that a first tempo attack is hit. The better you know your opponents, the more refined this position can be. For example, if you are playing against a team who hit all their a-quick’s deep to Position I, where should the ‘T’ be?
