How do you arc your jumpshot to go higher than the backboard?

Follow these tips in fast-motion:\n\n1- Spread your feet at same distance as your shoulders.\n\n2- When you take aim, use your shooting hand to hold the ball from underneath and the other hand to balance the ball from the side.\n\n3- Keep both elbows inside your shoulders' frame throughtout the whole motion.\n\n4- If you dont have enough strength to arc a jumpshot higher than the backborad, shoot the ball from your chest instead of from over your head and/or use your jump to help you push the ball. \n\n5- And the most important tip, because it is what makes the arc: use your shooting wrist to make the ball roll off your fingers as you shoot (it is a concept widely known as the finger-roll).\n\n6- Follow your shot with your shooting arm for better accuracy.\n\nWith the these tips, and practicing them at least a 100 times a day, you could be the next Larry Bird, or the next Reggie Miller. Who knows. Those guys hardly missed.

If you don't have a problem getting up at the net and actually hitting the ball then its your wrist that's the problem.  When you make contact with the ball snap your wrist to send the ball downward.  If you have a hard time doing this then you might need to work on your approach to get higher so you can hit more on top of the ball.

all the things you said sound good. as well as develop a mid range pull up that way once you beat your man, or have him off balance its easier to get that shot off and you can pull it before you get to the cup where the help is. Once you get a few of those down the defense will start to step u to stop that, THEN it makes it easier to get all the way to the basket. The key is dont always do the same thing keep the defense off balance. Take a few shots you know you can hit like a mid to short range jumper or pull up, then once you get them thinking jumper, drive. Also if you beat your man, and someone steps up to block your shot that means someone else is open. So on that same note, once you get them thinking okay he's a shooter, then start passing, or get them thinking he's gonna pass and then shoot. KEep them guessing. But first you have to take what they give you and use it against them. \nAnd all that being said do the little things play defense and rebound first. Mkae them work so hard on the other end that they are too frustrated to try and stop you.

Set a high screen with either your 4 or 5.  Then have the big player roll off the screen taking the pass up high.  have her pass to either wing as you attack the basket.  This is the classic Hi Low screen and roll play which has been used for years.  If neither big Gal can pass, you can also try a back door cut to the area of the floor where the double team comes from.  This area should be vacant unless the defense rolls to that area of the floor.  Then your 3 has to recognize the defense and move across the floor to the open area.  You can also play the two man game where the point dishes to a player moving behind them moving in the opposite direction which will probably result in a reach in foul as the trap comes off the ball handler.  Do this enough and the other team will have to sit players or be forced to remove the trap.  I could give you several more options, but without seeing your girls play or their dribble/ball handling skills its tough to make specific play designs.  The basic safety net of any offense is to have your big man back the other center toward the basket then come back to the ball handler to recieve the high pass.  Just be sure the wing players recognize this and make an easy handoff or short pass for the big player once she has the ball.  Don't be tempted into having the trapped player make a jump pass across the floor, as it is likely to be deflected or make for a difficult catch.

1) If you play 4/5, wtf are you doing driving anyway? play on the block w/ your back to the basket.\n\n2) Practice driving from the right...duh.\n\n3) If you can hit from the outside, the D will have to play you closer out there, so it'll be easier to drive.\n\n4) work on your pull-up jumper. start to drive, then pull up and hit it from 10-15 feet. if you can do that, they can't stop the drive

Make sure you have the proper, comfortable stance and balance.\nSee the rim.\nExtend your wrist backwards.\nThe basketball should rest on your fingerpads.\nTry to keep your elbow in and under the ball\nUse your legs... the longer the shot, the more you use your legs.\nRaise the ball smoothly and in one, fluid motion.\nFinish high with your arm to get good "arc" on the shot.\nFlop your wrist with a constant, relaxed follow through to get that backspin for a "shooter´s touch".

You may already be using these techniques as a B player, but many don't, so here's a couple important things to always keep in mind when playing.\n\nAlways move back to center court immediately after you've hit the ball.  (For obvious reasons, you dont want to get caught in the back or front of the court or too far to one side, giving your opponent a larger gap to shoot for)\n\nDon't chase the ball.  Racquetball is a game of anticipation.  Watch your opponent hitting the ball and anticipate where the ball will be on the court when it falls into your sweet spot.  Run for that spot, set up, and wait for the ball to come to you.\n\nPractice, Practice, Practice.  If you want your shot to get better, practice it by yourself in a controlled situation, until you have it perfected.  Then it will be there for you during your games, if you use good anticipation and remember to set up for each shot.  \n\n(This all assumes that your a B player and already use the proper grip of the racquet, and know the basics of proper swing mechanics.  If not, you should concentrate on these.  I've seen a few players that were good enough to play B, but still used poor swing and didnt hold the racquet correctly.  Lots of overhead shots, lol. But most likely they'll never improve their game significantly beyond that)

do light reps and strengthen your upper body so that you can take the contact. also work on a floater in the lane to get it over the big men. another thing do not give up your dribble unless you have a shot that will keep your options open. remember drive, draw, and dish.

Practice shots that you'd take in a game. Stand still, catch and shoot. Stand still, catch, dribble and shoot. Catch while on the move and shoot. Catch while on the move and fake or just go right into the dribble and then shoot. And, creating off of fakes (while a pivot foot is planted). Make sure you square up to the basket when shooting. Both feet should be pointing at the basket, and your body should square up to it. Make sure your power is coming from your legs, not your arms. Remember to follow-through on your shot. Practice like crazy. And be intense. Don't be lazy, work hard. If you half-heartedly practice getting shots off, they won't be very effective when a tough defender is near you in a real game

Sounds like, since you don't have the height, you need to make sure you get in a clear space so no-one bigger is in front of you. It's good that you are quick. So visualise and practice seeing yourself in a clear space and then practice until you get so good with putting your shots up that you don't need to be near the basket and your team knows that if they give you the ball in a clear space it will be just up over and in - another 3 pts from the 3 point Ace shooter king!

When using a forehand for topspin get above the ball a little more and angle your raquet slightly downward, swipe towards the net in a slightly down ward angle (think shoulder of your raquet hand to elbow of your free hand). Don't over angle your raquet or you could send the ball strait into the net. The key is getting above the ball just right, it will take some practice.\n        \nFor backspin reverse the effect, get under the ball a little more and angle the raquet upward, this time you may want to change your swipe from shoulder to elbow to elbow to shoulder.\n\n   Backhand is basically the same thing but with two hands. The only difference is you need to catch the ball with a sort of arch swing, this will increase your chances of nailing the ball into the opposite front box.\n\n    This takes practice, but keep trying, and don't lose hope if it doesn't work for you at first. Every player is slightly different when it comes to creating the right amout of spin in any direction. In good time, your opponent won't know what hit them. Good luck, and keep on playing!!!

there are many different ways to shoot a jump shot. i use mainly my arms, but use a little bit wrist.

Depending on the height of your teammates, you'll probably play forward or center. And depending on your teams offense, you might not even have a center.\n\nYou should practice:\n1) Posting-up\n2) After you catch the ball posting-up, try dribbling backwards and turning and shooting with the ball over your head.\n3) Practice hook shots and bank shots with both hands.\n4) Watch your feet and make sure you don't travel, many big guys under the hoop travel.\n5) Defensively, just keep your man away from the basket. Being able to block shots, block out for rebounds is an obvious plus.

Use the overhead style they teach.  The advantages are that the arc will take it over obstacles like walls, and also when it hits, it won't roll past your target.
