Smash

A smash (also called an overhead) is an attacking shot hit with a downward swing from above the head, typically executed when the ball is above the player and traveling toward them. In beach tennis, the smash is legal from any court position and is one of the primary offensive weapons. Per ITF Beach Tennis Rules, an attack may be played from any location on the court. The smash must clear the net and land within the opponent's court boundaries to be good.
