How to Serve and Return Like a Pro by Enhance Pickleball

This video teaches the importance of mastering both the serve and the return in pickleball.

For serving, it’s best to use a closed stance and aiming for the back third of the box, avoiding the lines, to ensure depth and consistency.

A compact and firm wrist motion for returns, aiming for depth to make the opponent's third shot difficult, is also best.

The video also advises players to use topspin on serves, as it allows for harder hits without the ball going long, and to maintain a consistent, deep return to gain an advantage in the game.

Key Points:

• Serve with Topspin: It allows for harder hits and ensures the ball doesn’t go long, aiming for a ‘rainbow trajectory’.

• Aim for Depth: Whether serving or returning, hitting the ball to the back third of the box is crucial to gain an advantage.

• Use a Closed Stance for Serving: It is more natural and helps with accuracy.

• Maintain a Compact Motion for Returns: A firm and compact motion is essential for effective returns, focusing on moving forward through the ball.

• Positioning: Stand two feet behind the baseline for returns, especially against hard servers, to give yourself time and space to hit a deep return.
