Professional Players Serving position
Serving
Felix Chan Asked 4 years ago
Hi Alois
From what I‘ve seen, professional table tennis players tend to stand near the side of the table when serving. Is it a really common strategy and what advantages can it give?

Hi Felix,
A lot of them start in this position but move quickly into a central position after serving. The position allows them to utilise the a wide range of Forehand serves and then with the follow through of moving their right leg they are mobile and in a position for the next ball.

The Float Serve
The float or no spin serve is an effective tool to have in your bag of serves. It adds good variation to your serves and can often set you up with an easy 3rd ball opportunity.
