What the best way to improve your serve?

Question

and what's the best serveing position

Answer 1

Okay, depends on what serve you want to do.

Underhand:  hold the ball in your left hand. Do not toss it. When your doing a underhand serve, remember this: "Backswing, step and hit." Hold the ball at 45 degrees and don't move it, this will only make it harder. To hit the ball, make a fist and hit it with your thumb side.

Overhand:If you are right handed this will be your serving hand. Hold the ball in the NON-SERVING hand at chest level. (Be sure to keep elbow lose, with a slight bend). Then toss the volleyball (gently) straight up into the air. (A perfect toss is just less than arms length away from you, and centered to the middle of your body.) As you begin to accelerate your SERVING hand to hit the ball take a step forward with opposite foot (this will balance you as you strike the ball). Then you will need to strike the ball with the lower portion of your palm on your serving hand, use your back to guide you forward. You will be making somewhat of a "punching" motion toward the ball. As you are striking the ball make sure you follow through with your strike... the arm of your serving hand should be completely extended at the point of contact. Kepp your hand flexed and your wrist locked, this will ensure that you get a strong hit.

Common mistakes are:

-Poor Toss

-Loose wrist or hand

-Swing of arm across body

-Wrong foot in front (poor balance)

-Slow arm swing

Wel over hand is the best because it goes faster and is sometimes harder for the other team to hit.....
