Improving my serve

Training

Dear PingSkills,

I realise my serve is usually more a liability than asset as it lacks spin and sometimes is too high. Usually, I only practice rallies during practice sessions and we play matches where we have a chance to serve. Do you have any tips on how I can continue to develop my serve to something useful for the game?

Regards,

Kenneth

Hi Kenneth,

Practising your serve is key.  I would start to introduce a serve into most drills that you do.  You can start any drill that you do during your practice session with a serve, return of serve and an opening topspin.

This is a key area of training that links to your matches.

Take some time to understand what are the key aspects of your game. You need to know how you win points and then develop those skills into a fierce weapon by focusing your training around them. Knowing your weaknesses is still important but Table Tennis is about winning points.
