Practice the overhead smash regularly to improve your technique and timing. Focus on generating power from your legs and core, as well as maintaining good balance throughout the shot.

Positioning: Start by positioning yourself near the baseline, with your non-dominant shoulder facing the net. Anticipate the ball's trajectory and move quickly to get into position under the ball.
