View the videos below to see if your serve is legal:
The Serve.
- When serving the ball, look where you want the ball to go.
- Then, lower your chin and serve.
- Keep your chin lowered and do not look where the ball is going until you hear the popping sound of the ball hitting your paddle.
- If you raise your chin, your arm will go high and the ball will also go high.
