Hi coach!
I have a problem with my sidespin serve. My serve doesn't have much spin. Can you tell me how to add more spin to my serve? Thank you.

Hi Roger,
Putting spin on your serve is a really important step in the game. The important factor is to be able to brush the ball finely and fast. The contact is all important. Once you have the feeling of the contact you will be able to spin the ball whichever way you want.
For the sidespin you need to brush the ball on the side or across the back to get the ball rotating on its vertical axis.
We have a lot of information on this area in our Serving Secrets lessons.
