Black
Friday Serve Camps
Commit
this year to raising the level of your game, by improving the most important
shot in the game…the serve. Your serve is the most important stroke in tennis
and one you need to spend a considerable amount if time practicing. Your serve
can either be viewed as a liability or a weapon. If you possess a highly effective serve you
already have half the games well in hand.
The serve, perhaps more than any other stroke, should be every player’s
best stroke. Because the serve is the
one shot which:
The
player dictates when they hit the ball.
The
player dictates where the ball will be hit.
The
player dictates where they will stand while hitting the ball.
It can
be practiced with or with out a partner.
One of
the defining characteristics that separate lower level players from higher
levels is the effectiveness of their serve. It is critical players learn how
the serve should be hit correctly. Any
player who is uncertain or has been given faulty service advice will surely
meet with difficulty and doubt creating, most likely, a questionable service
motion. The problem with players whose
serves are based on the wrong technique is that they tend to hit fast,
inconsistent first serves and push their second serves in. An even bigger problem is that their basic
service motion will reach a point where no more improvement can occur. However, if a player takes the time to learn
the proper service motion the player can improve every aspect of their serve.
