NOMVEX COURT LAB

Setter movement to base

2D SCENARIO

Markers = players · yellow = ball · dotted lines = movement / planned path. Illustrative practice positions, not rotation validation or 3D measurement.

Set-up

A feeder, setter and target. Vary the feed location before increasing speed.

What to observe

Setter arrives balanced; the target can play the ball without chasing.

A NOMVEX proposal to adapt to ability and space. The four phases explain one option; they do not predict the opponent’s response.
