Hi Gervic,

To make the ball turn you need to put sidespin on the ball.

Start by pointing the end of your bat to the floor.  Tis will alow you to hit the ball on the side.  You need to contact the ball with a strong brushing action to get it to start sinnig around sideways.  Thsis will generate sidespin and get the ball to turn.

Take a look at our Serving Secrets Revealed DVD available from our Online Store.  This covers all types of spin and different types of serves. and will really help you out by showing you the best techniques.
