In rotation 6 of the 5-1, the setter starts in position 2 (right front). The setter is in the front row, so there are only two front-row attackers (middle blocker 1 and outside hitter 1). The setter can also attack or dump the second ball. The middle blocker 2 serves.

Overlap check for rotation 6
At the moment of the serve, each front-row player must be closer to the net than the back-row player directly behind them (MB1 ahead of OPP, OH1 ahead of OH2, S ahead of MB2), and each row must stay in order left to right (front: MB1, OH1 and S; back: OPP, OH2 and MB2). Every formation on this page follows these rules.
