Tips on Serving

There are many, many different methods of serving in racquetball, but how do you know which serve to use. My advice would be to feel out your opponent as you warm-up, and take notice at what they have difficulty doing whether it's backhand/forehand swings or they can't move very fast. Once you've figured out there weakest aspect, exploit it and tailor a serve that would be very difficult to return. If they are weak on the backhand, serve to the backhand. If they are slow and can't move, serve a low, fast ball that they would have to work hard for. If your opponent doesn't have any weaknesses, try a lob serve to their backhand side. Most times if you hit it accurately this serve will lose momentum and die in the corner. I hope this was a help. Good luck in the courts.
