Zulkarnain Aripin Asked 14 years ago
Hi Coach,
I'm Zul from Cyberjaya, Malaysia...
Currently playing TT daily with my colleagues in the office.
I would like to ask you, what kind or which serve (serving) techniques should be used for doubles?
Thanks Coach ;p

Hi Zul,
The main thing when serving in doubles is to keep the ball short and close to the middle line. If you serve long in doubles it is too easy for your opponent to attack.
