net shot
Tight dink over
A net shot is a delicate stroke in racket sports like badminton and pickleball, played close to the net with minimal force.
The shuttlecock or ball barely clears the net and drops sharply on the opponent's side, making it difficult to return.
A well-executed net shot forces the opponent to lift the ball, creating an attacking opportunity: She followed her drop shot with a tight net shot to win the rally.
