Hi Carrington,

To get the ball faster you need to hit the ball flat.

Also make sure you are hitting the ball at around shoulder or head height.  This will allow you to maximise your power with your stroke.

Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Smash for more tips.

Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
