Left-handed service in Doubles
Serving
Jerome Babiera Asked 13 years ago
Hi Alois,
What serve do you prefer to a left-handed player on a Doubles play? I usually do a backhand backspin serve and forehand sidespin serve but when I do my forehand serve I will position at the edge of the table and it would be hard if the opponent would return it on the opposite side of the table. what serve would be best to a left-handed player?

Hi Jerome,
The main thing is to serve the ball close to the middle line so that the ball doesn't go off the side of the table. That is the ball that is easier for the left hander to topspin. Try to get the ball curving in towards the middle of table rather than the one that curves away.

Backhand Tomahawk Serve
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.
