Tennis Serve Tips

Want to improve one of the most important hits in tennis? If so you're in the right place, I'll show you exactly how you can improve your serve.

Choose your style - Before you even hit the ball, you need to decide how you want to hit the ball! There are generally 4 different major types of spins that you can put onto a ball. You can put a top spin, a slice, a combination of the two, or just a flat hit. Look them up and practice all of them, they are all useful depending on the situation.

Throw the ball high! -
A few professionals say that this is one of the key things that hold back beginners. Too many people will not throw the ball high enough, and this holds back their power and control. If you're having trouble try just throwing the ball higher, you'll be surprised.

Practice makes permanent -
Make sure you practice, but make sure you practice correctly. Try to get someone whose better than you to watch your swing, and correct it. Watch youtube videos online, and try to see different ways that people will serve the ball. Remember, practice doesn't help unless you are practicing correctly.

Play consistently -
Some people will get discouraged and quit trying to improve their serve. They get frustrated and stop, and then try again in a few weeks, this is a great way to never get anywhere. Don't fall into this trap!
