Coach, could you please share some of your tactics in setting up a third ball or fifth ball attack? In addition, what is your favorite type of serve?

Hi Mario,

The key to gaining the attack from your serve is to have subtle changes in spin.  The easiest is to change between backspin and no spin or less spin.

Try to develop your serves to a level where you can make slight changes in spin that will keep your opponent unsettled.

My favourite serve is the high toss pendulum serve.  That is the serve that I felt most comfortable with and could get slight variations with.
