Offensive alignments are usually titled numerically; the first number refers to the number of players who serve primarily as attackers, the second number referring to the number of players serving primarily as setters.  The 6-6 offense potentially has six attackers and six setters, primarily used as an introductory offensive alignment to allow all players to gain experience at all positions. Each player assumes the responsibilities of the setter when the player rotates into the right back position. This is the setter's position when in the base defensive alignment. The graphics below illustrate the playing positions on the floor for various alignments in the 6 - 6 offense. The serve reception positions of the players will be the same throughout all rotations, making it easier for beginning players to remember where they should be on the court.
