Too small to serve

Serving

Hello I am ten years old and I found it difficult to do most of the serves because I am to small. What type of service do you think is the best for me. I am an all round player.

Hi Eihaa,

I think the Tomahawk serve is the easiest when you are shorter.  You can swing through fast with the bat coming up higher than your elbow.

Often tall people need to get down really low to do the serve so you ar eat the right height already.
