All points in a table tennis game begin with either serving or returning the serve. When serving, you have a huge advantage in putting the receiver on the defensive or perhaps winning a point outright without any further strokes. To perfect your service game, USA Table Tennis Hall of Fame inductee Richard McAfee offers Expert Table Tennis Serves, a mini e-book providing expert advice.
By practicing the techniques in this mini e-book, you will be able to keep your opponent guessing with an assortment of short, middepth, and deep serves that produce a variety of spins. You’ll learn how, when, and where to touch the ball, whether using a forehand or backhand serve, while incorporating backspin, topspin, and sidespin.
Master the skills outlined by McAfee and you will be on your way to becoming a confident, high-level player.
The mini e-book Expert Table Tennis Serves is an abridged version of the comprehensive book Table Steps to Success (Human Kinetics, 2009). As part of the Steps to Success Sports Series, with more than 1.8 million copies sold, Table Steps to Success is the No. 1 resource for learning and loving the game.
