The normal overhand set, either forward or backward, is not the only legal set. Any clearly batted ball is permissible. However, other sets have the disadvantage of either resulting in ball-handling errors or tending to be inaccurate. Most common of this type is the underhand set with palms up.
For situations when the overhand set is impossible because the pass is too low
or too wide, the most practical alternatives are the dig sets made with the
wrists or with a closed fist. These methods of handling the ball are covered in
Chapter 6.
