1. Balance Exercises: Improve your balance with exercises like single-leg stands or standing on a balance board. Good balance is crucial for quick, precise movements on the court.

1. Positioning: Stand close to the net with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees slightly to maintain a low, balanced stance.
2. Contact Point: Try to meet the ball in front of your body, around waist height. This allows for better control and timing.

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.
