Training
Dear PingSkills,
I realise my serve is usually more a liability than asset as it lacks spin and sometimes is too high. Usually, I only practice rallies during practice sessions and we play matches where we have a chance to serve. Do you have any tips on how I can continue to develop my serve to something useful for the game?
Regards,
Kenneth
Hi Kenneth,
Practising your serve is key. I would start to introduce a serve into most drills that you do. You can start any drill that you do during your practice session with a serve, return of serve and an opening topspin.
This is a key area of training that links to your matches.
The penhold grip has a natural advantage when it comes to serving due to the increased wrist movement that is allows. However shakehand players can modify their normal grip to give them the same advantage. Learn how in this master class.
