How to curve a ball when serve?

Hi Barath,

The curve comes when you put sidespin on the ball.

To put sidespin you need to brush across the back of the ball or across the side of the ball.  This get the ball rotating on its vertical axis.

In our Introduction to Serving section we show you how to spin the ball effectively.

In this lesson we show you how to execute the Backhand Tomahawk serve. This is a good complement to the Tomahawk serve. By utilising a similar action, it will make it difficult for your opponent to tell which way the ball and spin are going.
