The basic serve of tennis starts every point in a match, and the server is considered to have an advantage.
This is partly because you have two changes to get your serve in, and partly because you can take your time to set up the shot and therefore put your opponents at a disadvantage.
They don’t know where you are going to place the shot and therefore have to react quickly. Practice to develop an accurate, reliable serve you can repeat over and over again.
A. Serve Prepare
Make the service grip by holding the racquet with your forefinger knuckle on the second bevel. You should be able to extend the racquet to form an almost straight line with your arm.
B. Serve it up
To begin the serve, stand just behind the baseline near the centre mark, and take a sideway position. Bounce the ball a few time in preparation to serve.
C. Take the shot
Toss the ball high and swing the racquet using a throwing motion, making contact with the ball at the top of your reach.
That is a beginning of the basic serve of tennis or you can read posting before about the basic rules of tennis.
