TIP OF THE WEEK ~ RETURN

RETURN OF SERVE

Key points to a good return of serve are:

1. Play return shots across court for good percentage tennis.

2. Depending on the score going down the line can also is great strategy.

3. Return and go to the net. Catch your opponent off guard and take the net before he/she does.

4. Be aggressive on the return. Don’t dink the ball back. Make your opponent respond quickly.

5. Occasionally throw in a moon ball return to give your opponent a high bouncing ball to handle.

6. Most important of all is to get the returns back. Make every effort to get the ball returned so as to make your opponent hit another ball.

Have a great day on the tennis court.
