In this video, Coach Sammy shows you how to serve with intention in under 10 minutes by adding power, height/spin, and variability to apply pressure on the first ball. He explains why the power serve should be your primary option, focusing on depth, weight transfer, and avoiding common mistakes like poor hip/weight transfer and an oversized backswing. He then teaches the lob serve, emphasizing a much higher bounce than the power serve, targeting deep and keeping fundamentals similar to disguise it. Finally, he covers the screwball/heavy sidespin serve to disrupt timing, detailing the crescent “C” swing path, body-target placement, and mistakes like breaking the wrist or swinging too fast, and I encourage mixing serves and accepting purposeful misses.
