Initially when you are learning a new serve you can just get a bucket of balls and serve over and over again. But at some stage you need to practice your serve exactly as you would play in a match. In this session we focus on this. It's important that you try to make this practice as close to a real match as you can so that when you are in the real thing, you feel comfortable.
Do you serve the high toss serve? Watch this week's master class to see how to do it and why we think the high toss serve is worth learning.
Coach
I notice when Jeff is in the ready position just before you serve he moves his bat closer to the middle of his body and his left hand grabs the bat. Is this intentional and if so what is the purpose? See 4:32 and 4:52
thanks
Hi Andrew,
It is just a habit that Jeff has. No real purpose.
