Basketball Rebound for Short Player
While it may be easier for taller player to dominate the area under the basket, if you are short, you can as well have the chance to take the opportunity of getting the ball and make a rebound under the basket. It only takes 3 skills to do just that. To be a good rebounder you must posses these three things: determination, positioning and aggressiveness. Even with the lack of height you can conquer the inner court.
You must initially develop the skill of foreseeing where the ball will land after a missed shot. This way, you can better position yourself towards the spot and take over the ball. But short players often have the difficulty of doing this since they are overwhelmed by other taller players. And the common mistake among players under the basket, even with those who are adequately gifted with height, is that they tend to watch the ball’s flight after a missed shot.
Determination
There is noting more satisfying than being able to steal the ball from everybody else followed by a scored shot. So prepared you mind and focused on your aim to get the ball, come hell or high water. There are other players on the court but you must set your mind on getting the ball first. If you believe that you can do this then you must be willing to take the risks that accompany the action of going under the board.
Positioning
You must always pursue the ball under the ring. And remember that once you get the ball in your hand, you must land with your elbows wide- protecting the ball. Make as much space as possible so other players won’t be able to steal it from you.
Aggressiveness
If you are a timid player you will find it difficult to succeed in rebounding. Simply because the rebound area is normally the most physically challenging spot in the court. If you are afraid of getting hurt or fouled, you won’t get the ball.
Rebounding is considered as one of the most difficult skills to learn in basketball. But with enough skills and determination matched with adequate practice, good position and aggressiveness you can learn to rebound as many times as you decide under the ring regardless of your height.

How do you get over the net and spike the ball if your short?
My coach tells me i have an excellent approach, form, and swing. He says it’s probably one of da best on the team. However, i am only 5′ 4″ nd i have trouble gettin over da net. If i get a 10 ball, i can kill it, but i wanna be able to hit in da front row. any suggestions?
you do need to get over the net to hit thats just a fact, you basically are just shooting the ball by putting good spin on it other wise. Obviously you are at a disadvantage but you can develope a nice leap through plyometric training. I built my leap to 40 inches in college playing and training on the beach. Although some of it is genetic I believe anyone can get hops if they work hard. I recommend a high protein diet, and doing some of the following…
Jumpsquats with weights, interval running in the deep sand, running up and down sand dunes, having a training partner make a bridge on hands and knees and taking a volleyball approach and max jumping over him doing three sets of like fifty. You also want to be training you core as your abs are important in volleyball as well. You need to train hard and search the internet for new ideas or get a trainer, and over the course of a few months you can add anywhere from 4 to 10 inches to your leap. My entire highschool team was jumping in the mid thirties, and shorter guys tend to jump higher if there in shape so there is hope…
Playing on the beach will drastically help your indoor leaping but it may mess you indoor game up a little bit, but there is no sport where jumping high is more valuable if you cant jump your no good., unlees you want to be a libero you better pass nails then lol.
