The smash is the main attacking shot used in volleyball and is probably one of the hardest moves to master.
Eyes on the ball, other arm used as a guide. Stay tall on balls of feet and keep knees bent to create maximum elevation.
Player leaning slightly back prior to contact with the ball. Upon contact, push body weight forward to generate power through the shot.
New hitters rarely miss because of their arm. They miss because of their feet. Build a reliable approach, then time it with your setter.
When your hitter gets stuffed, five teammates standing and watching is how you lose the point. Good attack coverage turns a blocked ball into a second swing.
Coaches spend hours correcting arms in serve receive when the real fault is almost always the feet. Fix the movement and the platform fixes itself.
