Tennis: Kick Serve

Thanks for everything! Sportplan has helped me to improve my tennis...
Andrea, Tennis coach

DESCRIPTION

Player serves on his/her own side and tries to hit the back fence after one bounce.

COACHING POINTS

Wrist action and acceleration are ywo major parts of successful kick serve.

Players have to learn how to combine these two areas to execute the serve with high and unexpected bounce.

In this exercise, players learn how to “snap the wrist” while accelerating the racquet.

PROGRESSION

As players develop ask them to hit the back fence in the air or serve from the baseline.
