One Serve Different Variation
Serving
Tushar Verma Asked 10 years ago
Hi Alois and Jeff,
I asked you about my serve and I got a positive response.
But when I asked the same question from my club coach he said that why I am using many serves I just have to practice two serve one from FH and other from BH and he also said I should be able to serve in these types. For example Sidespin serve
- Short Sidespin
- Long Sidespin
- Long and Fast Sidespin
- Reverse Sidespin
Like International players same serve in different types.
Is this really work in game or I should depend on my all previous serves?

Hi Tushar,
at first it is good to develop a wide range of serves to see what suits you.
However, your coach is right. Eventually you should just pick couple of serves that you can do well and use these with variations as you described. This will mean that you will be more used to the return that will come back after the serve.

I mainly use sidespin and backspin which serve will be better for these variations ?
It really doesn’t matter which one you use.
