Serve to the body
Aimed straight at the receiver, so they have to get out of the way of the ball and cannot swing freely.
Quando giocarlo
Against receivers who like to step in and attack. On important points, as a surprise.
Come giocarlo
Pick the receiver's hip on their backhand side as the target. Add a little pace and keep it low. Be ready for a blocked return to your feet.
Errori comuni
Using it every point, so the receiver sets up for it. Serving too slowly, which gives them time to step aside.
