Underhand Serving: 3

Stage three of the serving progressions;

Working in pairs, players throw the ball to go over the net to their partner (with no bounce), stepping forward with the opposite leg to the hand that you roll the ball over with (using body weight).

So if players throw the ball with their right hand they should step forward with their left foot.

Underhand Serving

A fun and simple way to introduce the serve.

Using the underhand serve players pass the ball over the net one another.

There should be no loose balls here, players should focus on accuracy as they aim to get the ball up and over.

Once again players should be stepping forwards with the opposite leg to the hand that you serve with.
