The 4-2 offensive system features four attackers and two setters. Advantages to this offense are: It is a simple offense, the setter is always in the front row, it can utilize immobile setters and the offense can run with less accurate passing. Coach Knuth's basic alignment calls for two front line players watching the serve. On the serve, they rotate back to their positions, putting the setter back in the middle. Another alignment is the International 4-2 set, sometimes called the right side 4-2. The International is a quicker offense and sets are in front of the dominant hand. Knuth covers the five person serve receive, the "U" serve receive and the three-person serve receive. The 4-2 numbering system goes from 1 to 5, depending on how high and how far out the set up is. Front row attack drills are demonstrated as well as back row attack drills. Knuth includes the offense vs. zero drill, which is a key part of practicing this offense.

The 6-2 Offensive System relates to having six attackers and two setters in the offense. According to Coach Knuth, the benefits of this offense are that it keeps three attackers in the front row, utilizes two setters that are also skilled attackers and the coach can substitute shorter players in the front row. Another advantage is that after rotation libero can be replaced by a defender. Knuth explains all of the basic offensive positions and the various rotations they make in the offense. Serve receive is an important part of the 6-2 offense. He also demonstrates three set plays out of this offense. A good drill package accompanies the teaching points and keys. Drills help set the offense, and develop front and back row attacks. Knuth does an excellent job of analyzing each play option, highlighting the responsibility of each position. Overall, this is a complete look at this winning offensive attack.

Regardless of what offense you employ, matching it to your personnel needs to be a priority. The 5-1 offensive system is a favorite of Coach Knuth's. It puts five attackers on the floor with one setter. A key to this offense is having a setter that is a leader, setter and blocker on your team. Advantages are the consistent sets in the offense, where attackers do not have to adjust to different setters; a specialization of positions and the setter can also block. Specialized skills must be established to give this offense the edge it needs, and Knuth puts his team through these skill workouts for you. Knuth covers the 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 sets. Setting the offense is a drill that creates consistency for each of the five sets. Front and back row attacks are part of this offensive package as well. Multiple drills and in-depth teaching make this a complete look at the 5-1 offense, which will allow for easy installation for you.
