Using the Libero Made Easy
Do you need a crash course in how to use the Libero? I sure did. About 5 years ago, with the move to rally scoring, changes were made in an effort to help rallies last longer. Thus, a new position was created. The result? The Libero. Like many coaches out there, I was a little resistant to use it initially, because I didn't know the rules for using it. So, here is a crash course, from all my mistakes.
