Rules for pressure points–easy 8 rules for serving pressure point play.
1. Never give an easy serve to kill-for this reason I do not like drive serves unless hit on the short side; not off the back wall!
2. Never “cleverate” yourself on serving. Many times the serve gets too cute; too smart-you do not trick a good player; you beat them!
3. Always take your time with the serve. You have ten seconds. Think and visualize the serve.
4. Always know the return options of your serve. An example might be If you serve to the backhand they have a “loop de loop” backhand you will probably get a sidewall return.
5. Get back to center court asap! Do not saunter back!
6. Get ready for the return.
7. If you have a shot in the front court, do not let them off the hook! Skipping easy re-kills, will kill your chances of winning!
8. Be in charge. Great body language makes for great performance!
Try these 8 and you’ll be great!
