How can I make my tennis serve harder and faster?

Question

I'll be a sophomore in high school and I played on varsity my freshman year and my serve awesome but right after the season it sucked...I don't know what I'm doing wrong. So how can I make it harder and faster? There will be a best answer given out!

Answer 1

lol well the taller u are the better the individual. When u are tall and well have long legs the individual moves the opponent , u dont have to move so much, so therefore it becomes harder and faster for ur opponent to get dat ball

Answer 2

Practice make you perfect !!!

By practicing you will learn !!!

Answer 3

Well, first off, to make your serve great all year round, you have to play and practice almost every day. To make your serve faster and harder, try throwing it up higher, then just slam it down. Choose a serve that you're comfortable with.

Answer 4

If you want to make your serve hard and fast you want to take off as much spin as you can, because the flatter it is the quicker it will travel through the air. Your ball toss should be out in front of you and you should use your legs to reach up for the ball. The more fluent and the better you time your serve the faster and harder it will be.

Answer 5

I cant tell you exactly what to do since i cant see you but.. try using more legs to push off it gives you more power.. Also if you hold your racket at more of an angle when your serving it will obviously give you more spin, so i suggest just serving and trying different angles till you find one with good rotation.
