However, in playing tennis, it is not just the origin of hitting the ball using a racket. There are a number of court tennis hitting techniques that need to be learned and mastered.

When you just start playing tennis, you should learn how to hit a tennis ball. Many novice players take punches carelessly. Even though without applying the hitting technique, the ball can soar and is not knocked off on target, so it can cause injury.

In tennis, there are several hitting techniques. Here are a variety of field tennis hitting techniques that you need to know.

The technique that must be studied for the first time is serve. Just like service in badminton or table tennis, this blow is done to start the game. How to do a court tennis survey is quite easy, the most important thing is to focus, position a ready body, and strong and directed blow.

Serve is done by standing at the baseline and holding the racket using the main hand or the strongest. For example, you use your right hand to hit, then the left leg is placed in front as a resistance barrier. Hold the racket and the ball uses each hand in front of the body. Then the ball is thrown up, and beaten with a racket as the ball moves down.

Forehand is a blow with an open arm position. This hitting technique is the strongest blow the player uses the dominant hand to hold the racket. The key to doing the right and maximal foreplay is the strong racket handle and body balance.

When doing foreplay, bend your knees and hip to the side (the direction of the hand used to hold the racket) when waiting for the ball to arrive. If you feel that the handle of one hand is still not strong enough, you can hold the racket with the help of one hand. When the ball is at the distance of the blow, turn your body while swinging the racket towards the ball. Body round and racket swing must be done simultaneously and balanced in order to produce a strong blow.

Backhand is a hitting technique with closed hands. This blow is swung in the opposite direction from the dominant hand. Backhand can be done using one hand or two hands if you want the ball to be stronger. This hitting technique is usually more difficult to do than foreplay.

The backhand punch movement is carried out with the position of the body turning to the opposite side of the dominant hand holding the racket. When the ball comes and reaches a distance of hitting, turn the body forward along with a racket swing.

Dropshot is a punch that targets a target point in front of the net. This blow is done from the back field point and directs the ball to a thin point with a net or even touches the net. The dropshot technique is done with a slow blow, but is full of high accuracy and control so that the ball can fall at the targeted point.

Spin is a forkhand and backhand blow with a slightly tilted racket position. This hitting technique will make the ball rotate so that the direction is difficult for opponents to guess.

Lob is a hitting technique to produce a soaring ball and fall at the back of the opponent's field. This technique is done with a strong blow so that the ball can reach the back of the field, but remains under control so as not to cross the line.

Volley is a foreplay or backhand when the ball's position hasn't bounced off the pitch. This technique is done by placing the racket over the head waiting for the ball to arrive, then swinging the shot as fast as it can.

Unlike volleyball, groundstroke is a hitting technique when the ball bounces off once on the pitch.

Those are some of the tennis court techniques that tennis players must control. By mastering a number of these techniques, you can play tennis optimally so you can win the match.
