Receiving
Hi Coach!
I played with a pro and he serve is so good. Sometime he does the backspin some time he does topspin. So how can I know the different of topspin and backspin

Hi Long,
You need to watch the contact when he hits the serve and try to see whether he is going up or down at the actual point of impact.
The other thing to watch is the flight of the ball. The topspin will tend to dip quicker and the backspin will tend to hold up in the air.
We have a lot of other information on how to receive serves in our Receiving Secrets section.
In doubles you are standing in a different position and the ball is coming to you at a different angle than it would in singles. We show you how to adjust and make an effective return in doubles.
