Tennis Doubles Return Of Serve - When The Serve Is Played Directly At You

In doubles, as the returner of serve, you should be doing everything you can to think of your return as an approach shot.

That's right, the sooner you can get up to net and join your partner up there, the more pressure you'll put on that serving team.

If you and your partner can break serve on a regular basis in doubles, your serving games will get a lot easier to hold.

However, one of the tough returns of serve is when the server smartly serves directly at you forcing you to have quick and precise footwork to get out of the way of that incoming serve.

If you can't, then guess what, you're stuck on the baseline for at least the next shot or two and the serving team now most likely has the good net position before you do.

Check out this video on the return of serve that has a couple of tips on how to handle that serve that comes directly at you...


Want to improve your return of serve and become a much better singles & doubles player?

Well of course you do!
