FIVB Removing Double Touch Rule (Comments and thoughts!)

Handsetting rules and interpretation of those rules has changed back and forth over the years, but the year of 2025 seems to be the year of reaching a new extreme end of that, where Sweden decided to remove the double touch rule from their national tournaments, and FIVB is going to run 3 test tournaments without the rule as well. It's no secret that I am on the "strongly against this" side of people if there was a way to vote about it, but I do think it's an important issue to talk about. This video is hopefully a part of that conversation, because I genuinely think that the people who want to remove the rule think the sport will be better that way, but I believe they haven't quite thought things through properly, so I'd like to show some of the things that will happen if the rules is permanently removed, before they actually happen and there is still a chance to not do this mistake. If you want to listen to my podcast episode with even more arguments against removing the double touch rule, here it is:    • #22 - Sweden  Removing Double Touch Rule F...   (Or find episode 22 of the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast Podcast in your favorite podcast app!)

This is of course bad for me, but also bad for the ones who really like my content, so just a lose-lose overall. Therefore, I decided to add another way to "subscribe" to this project - by joining one of my "update channels." Simply a one way communication groupchat in your favorite messaging app. No spam (so only posts in it is when I actually post a new Youtube video, podcast, or blogpost!), and within your normal messages that you probably check daily, so you will get reminded (but not spammed) in a convenient place that you won't miss! I want to have one of these for basically all primary messaging apps people use, so let me know if I am missing the one you use daily. They differ a bit in functionality, Telegram is the best for avoiding spam and privacy, simply a channel you follow, only I can post in it, and nobody else can see that you are in the chat/channel. Facebook Messenger is the worst, both can people see that you are in the chat, and people can write in it, so I can't guarantee 100% spam free in that one (all others should be safe spam-wise though!) Here are the channels/groupchats: Telegram: https://t.me/learnbeach Instagram direct messages: (Only I can post, people who both follow you and also are in the chat can see that you are in there as well.)   / abbwksdxp4-zeset   Whatsapp: (Only I can post, but other members can see your phone number.) https://chat.whatsapp.com/CrlmONQ5QAF... Facebook Messenger (People can see that you are a part of it, and also write messages in the chat even though I will try to make sure this doesn't happen.) https://m.me/ch/AbaVQsaMFy9rN7jM/?sen...
