Serving
hi coach,
how do i serve a reverse spin serve.
thanks.
Hi Jack,
To do the Reverse spin serve you need to remember a couple of basics. Satrt with the forehand side of your bat facing in towards you. Contact the ball on the side furthest away from you with a brushing action. Finish with the front edge of your bat pointing at the far net post.
Try these out. We cover this serve in our DVD Serving Secrets Revealed. You can purchase it through our Online Store. It will really help you with by being able to see what happens. We have the serve in slo mo and go through it step by step.
Have a read at some of the feedback we have received on our Blog page.
