I played a match with my team and during the first half my serving went very well. As the game went on I missed some serves but I was seeing improvment. One thing that helped me achive this was that a team member showed me a different way to throw the ball so that the ball is more in front of you so you have to take a step and follow through to hit the ball. This way the step would allow me to provide more power and control over my serves which really helped. It was nice to have another team member helping me out because it helped me improve and it also made me feel conncected to my team.
I had also recived adivice from the other team on my serve which surprised me. I was playing a practice doubles match with two girls from another schools team. I was struggling with my serve and so they offered me some advice. She told me that if a stood more to the side it would help with my angles which would make it easier to get the ball in the box that it needed to be in. This advice helped me and it also gave me more confidence that the other team were just girls willing to help me and not out to make fun of my poor serving skills. after this advice and with the new way to toss the ball I have improved my serve even more.
