I played my brother n law who is a good player he has 4-5 different serves and they have so much spin on his serve when I try to return it the ball goes left right or in the net. How do I return a serve the correct way?

Hi Marques,

The main thing is to use the angle of your racket only to change where the ball is going.

So if the ball is going off to the left, angle your bat to the right and vice versa.

We cover this comprehensively in the Course on Receiving Secrets.  Take a look through the list of lessons available there to our Premium members.
