Hey everyone! Today's Tennis Tip is to help you have a smoother serve. Smoothness comes from a nice relaxed arm, and results in more power! Reaching up means you are using your full height and range of motion to gain power, and then importantly decelerating properly helps prevent injury to your forearm!
Enjoy, and check back in next week for your next tip!

When on court helping others to solve their Tennis problems, coaches often find the most incredible nuggets of wisdom pop out of their mouth. Sometimes to their own astonishment, more than anyone else's. "Where did this come from?" They are thinking, whilst also rushing over to the side of the court to write them down, as many times the beauty of the phrase or thought, is lost within minutes. It is not dissimilar to when you have a genius thought at 3am, only to find by 8am with alarm clock, it gone never to be found again, you may have a vague recollection of what it was connected to, but it just lost its magic. In this News section of the website you will find News, but occasionally you will find some of these nuggets of wisdom that were retained. The shorter ones often end up on the Instagram account, but sometimes you just need to tell a bit of a story. Please enjoy this collection of brainwaves!
