Serve

Written bySports Definitions Contributors Hours Last Updated on Categories Tennis

Every point is started with a serve. Each game begins by hitting from the right side of the court into the lefthand service court and from alternate sides from then on. Both feet must be behind the baseline when the serve is struck. The ball is tossed into the air and is struck in a similar manner to an overhead smash. The server has two chances to make a good serve.
