The smash in Badminton is a shot which you play when you hit the shuttlecock really hard and it lands on the opposite side.

It's the most aggressive shot in badminton - the technique is very similar to serving in tennis or throwing a ball overarm.

When the ball is lobbed up high usually a little deep in the court, you set up like you would for a serve.. then with your non-dominant hand point at the ball- when the ball reaches a height where it will meet the centre of your racquet head, pro-nate and follow through all the way down while dropping your opposite hand to stop pointing.

It's a hard-hit overhead shot that forces the shuttle sharply downward.

A smash is when the birdie goes high up and drops to the opponent, and then he/she smacks it as hard as they can with their racket.

Smash is when a hitter spikes or hits the ball to the other side. The ball must go downward to be a kill to be a 'smash'. (kill= when you spike the ball really hard and no one touches it.)

hit the volleyball downwards into the other side of the court. do this with the bottom of your palm. if you do it with the flat of your hand it is more than likely to hurt. ;)
