How can I get my girls to serve farther?

Some of them do not have the power to make it past the net. Is it speed, technique?

Hello Chris,

It could be a combination of speed, power and in most cases technique, whichever is relative to the individual.

Here is a focused serve session that improves your players serve (power, technique and accuracy) which should cover all your needs to improve your players service - Serve: Accuracy, Consistency and Power Plan.
