Session 5

High-hand hitting

THEORETICAL MATERIAL
There are three types of high-hand hitting. Each of them is made up of three distinct phases (preparation phase, execution phase and recovery phase). The existing hits are:
  1. Smash.
  2. Clear.
  3. Drop.
These movements can be made from any part of the field, provided that the player who performs them is not close to the net, since there are specific movements that take place when the player is in that part of the field.
