Basically practice. When I played volleyball in P.E my underhand was a lot better than my overhand but I started to do overhand more and it got better. Also change the way you hit it with your had. Use your palms or use your knuckles. Have a good game if you do.Is there a volleyball training camp at Washington State University this summer?
when u serve...put the ball in ur dominant hand. then with your other hand put it on the top of the ball then move it cirectly back to your shoulder. then after that toss the ball and make sure u hit the ball with a flet hand. remember this is mostly for passing...but it works wonders for serving too...kness hips to target! lol good luck!Where to play volleyball near union nj?
the best advice is to serve underhand. You can get it in more often. A average overhand is more likely to go out of bounds, and just as easy to return.I actually have a very tough overhand serve. It's a lot like throwing a ball. The right foot is back, and you step foreward with the left. Try to hit the ball so it has top spin. Serving deep usually works best unless they all scoot back.
Hard to explain topspin, mostly hit the top half of the ball
go out and throw a football longer and longer distances with your serving arm with someone. Seriously. It helps stretch the same major muscles and gives you an idea how much force you can actually generate. then go back to the gym and imagine your serve is an open smacking version of how you were throwing the football. Or ask your coach to teach you how to serve a 'floater'. You need next to no strength at all to get a floater over the net. Or better yet, use both techniques to mix it up and keep the other team guessing. good luck!!
push-ups. i remember my first year of volleyball when i was 11 none of us could get the ball over the net. our coach told us to do 20+ push-ups a night and by the end of the season we were all very strong servers
me too, i sympathize with u. if u're not getting enough force to get it over the net, this might work: imagine that the ball is your enemy's face, or your enemy's feelings, or something that your enemy values. Then you might be able to whack it! also make sure you're not throwing the ball too high, i always do that its really annoying :(
well to become a better server in volleyball... turn your shoulders and hips the way you want it to go..the only reason i know this is because i play volleyball, too...

Practice when ever you have spare time. Practice by yourself against a wall Hit the ball towards the ground and if you are hitting it right the ball will always come back to you to where you can continuously hit it over and over increasing your power every time just practice that's most of the hard work the rest is up to you.Does anyone have any funny volleyball slogans/sayings to put on a game day t shirt?
I had the exact same problem. When I served underhand my serves were really spinny and high and WAY EASY to get. Overhand serve is the best. In order to get on top of the ball you need to bring your arm back.when your serving think in your head and say ooommm...paaa when u say paa look straight ahead and hit the ball

stay focused and try to develop some confidence in your overhand serve. Believe that you can do it, mentally prepare yourself for it by envisioning yourself serving a perfect game in your mind. (trust me, it works). You also need to look into strength training if the issue is you don't have enough strength to get the ball over the net. Your coach should be able to suggest some volleyball specific strength training.Practice up against a wall...start at close range to ensure that your stance, and arm motion are correct. Aim for one or two squares (or a specific point on the wall). Continue to move back after you have accurately hit your target a number of times and are confident that you could do it again on demand. Your swing will improve and your precision will as well. It will take some time, but keep practising!
When you serve try hitting it with your palm. Throw the ball above your head but in front of you and swing at the ball and follow through. But if that doesn't work then your last result is to try serving with an closed fist. But when you do there might be a risk of you hitting with your knuckles and it going off to the side. But that is slight if you control it. But if you practice it some more than it will work out for you.
If your serve touches the net, is it legall?
