There is no difference between the shoulder bones of a man and a woman. Typically men do have a wider frame but the shoulders are still built the same way. I don't personally know the reason women tend to throw underhand, perhaps there is another anatomical reason that isn't skeletal. I think that it may simply be that society views underhanded throwing as more feminine.

What is throw in badminton?

In badminton, a "throw" is not a standard or recognized term. However, it may refer to an illegal action where a player uses an underhand or overhand motion to propel the shuttlecock, rather than striking it with the racket. This action can result in a fault, as players must hit the shuttlecock with the racket's strings during play. Proper technique and adherence to the rules are essential for fair play in badminton.

What is the overhand serve in volleyball?

On YouTube there plenty of videos of how to serve. See related links, below, for an excellent example of various serving techniques, from underhand to overhand, both standing and stepping serves, with and without spin. If you're a complete beginner to the sport, start with underhand serving and get comfortable with the motion and weight of the ball. When you're ready to start overhand serving, start with the stationary serve then work up to the stepping serve before adding spin to the serve. The secret to good serving is simply to throw high and forward, whilst stepping and jumping to meet the ball on its descent, forward of the base line (without touching the court until the ball is hit, obviously). Hit the ball with the heel of your hand to gain maximum punch, at the highest point you can reach and with maximum effort. The higher and more forward you can jump the better, as the ball can effectively be propelled downwards over the net, rather than up and over the net; and the faster you can serve, the more difficult it will be for your opponents to recover the ball for a setup and return. Of course serving the ball is one thing, serving with accuracy is quite another, but that will come with practice. Good luck and, above all, enjoy yourself.
