  1. toss consistently

    hit the ball in the center

    face your body to the target

    concentrate really hard on getting that ball there.

    the last one is most important! when i dont concentrate i serve all over the place, but when i do i can serve right into the lap of the girl sitting on the ground waiting for my serve!


  2. ok well the key is where u swing threw like if u wanta hit 2 the 6 then swing ur arm straight threw 2 there

  3. Start by facing the direction you would like to aim for. Or, to be more descrite, you can tilt your hand to the left/right when you contact the ball. If you want to aim in a sense of short/deep, step closer/farther if you want to aim short/long, respectively, or put less arm swing in for a short serve. More top spin, by snapping your wrist could also make it land shorter.

  4. Face in the general direction of where you want to serve, give it a good high toss, hit it with as much or as little force as needed, and most importantly follow through and snap your wrist towards where you want to aim the ball after you hit.

    Practice makes perfect.

  5. that´s a really good question..

    our coach once told us that it is a good thing to act always the same way when you serve. (like tipping the ball three times)

    You are more concentrated and on the other hand more relaxed and secure.

    To aim i often messure the way the ball has to go... like, where to cross the net...

    When i am serving i take care that i will not change the ankle of my body , the bodytension and that i hit the ball with a straight arm...

    to practise it we often use gymnastic mats or cons(bowling pins)

    It´s great, when you hit them :)

    good luck...

  6. First, you should imagine the spots on the court on your hand. The 1 spot should be on the upper left part of your right palm. Just follow the numbers on your hand and the court and adjust the amounts of power and you should hit the spot almost every time.

  7. If you're right handed, take a step with your left foot toward your target. Then swivel your hips so you hit the ball toward you target.

  8. ok, so what u need to do is face ur body the way u want it to go, always start in ur regular position and to go s triaght, swing and stop so ur facing forward,then follow through with ur hand pointing the direction u hit it, if u didnt hit it straight at first its ok, just take ur time, hope i helped!

  9. The thing is u have to practice a lot u what to do that . Like bouncing the ball to the wall and u hit the ball like smashing the ball . That way u can learn how to control the ball . So next time u serve u can can control the ball where do what to hit it .
