Hi coach. I want to ask that whenever I do try to do tomahawk serve  i do it perfectly but the ball doesn't spin. I want to spin the ball so that i can confuse the player. what should i do for that?

Hi Gunjan,

It sounds like you are not getting a brushing contact on the ball.  Focus on this.  Do it away from the table initially so that you are not restricted with your swing.  

If you are right handed, brush the right hand side of the ball.  Then if you feel if you are getting the ball to curve then move back to the table and give it a try.
