Volleyball header

When a soccer match breaks out on the volleyball court... 🙂 This is the first time I have shot a header in volleyball and it occurred during the first game of the regional championship and her team won.
Captured with a Canon 1DX III and EF 70-200 f2.8 IS III @ f2.8, 1/1,000, ISO 5,000.

Thanks Steve but I give Canon body and lens technology the credit. Volleyball is NOT my favorite sport to shoot but the AF system in the 1DX III does amazing work and makes volleyball photography less painful 🙂

Roger,

I have to say that that is one of the more unusual ways to serve I've ever come across. 😀

Great timing of the shot. "That's using the old bean!"
