A libero is basically a defensive specialist that only plays back row. They are allowed to serve, and attack the ball over the net but it has to be before the 10 foot line. The libero is expected to give good passes and digs to the setter (who gets second ball).

How can one be a libero?
Well, it depends. If you think that you are a strong back row only player, then you probably could become a libero. All a libero does is basically play the back row middle position. If you are playing a 6-2, then there will only be 2 players in the back row, so the libero will have to fill in for that 3rd missing player. Basically, the libero watches anything that comes to the back and most of the time watches deep for the serves and volleys.
