Returning Service

*CONFUSE AND SURPRISE YOUR OPPONENT" IS

BUDGE'S TIP

It should be the purpose of the service return to offset the offensive advantage which belongs to the server. This may be accomplished either by a direct attempt to take the offensive, or by a defensivo move to keep the server from gaining the full benefit of his advantage.

As the forehand le usually the stronger attacking stroke, I believe that it should be favoured by the receiver. In other words, he should stand a Hitle bit to the left of the centre of the service court.

This means that the server has a smaller portion of court in which to And his opponent's weaker shot off the ground. It also allows the re- ceiver to run around any slow serves to his backhand, take them on his forchand, und often make a good forcing return.

ENGLISH

BOXERS

RANKED

The distance at which the player Harvey Ahead Of

stands from the service line to re- celve depends on several factory. The speed of the service, the amount of spin on the ball, the intention of the receiver, and the quickness of his have an important bear- reflexes, atl ing on the return.

If the service is of average speed, and the ability of the receiver about average, the best position in either on or slightly to cither side of the base line.

Against a powerful straight service It is often as well to go back farther. This gives the receiver a little extra time to judge and handle the ball.

The body should be slightly for- ward and crouched a little. The player should also be up on fils toes all the time.

I usually move in closer for the second service. This is to worry the server a little, and, if possible, to enable me to reach the net, should I succeed in making a forcing re-

turn.

THE NET-RUSHER PROBLEM A net-rushing server is always a problem to the receiver, who is forced to make an attempt to pass him with a shot that will bring an

error.

Against the net rusher one must keep the returns as low as possible. sometimes even at the expense of carrying top spln pace, Returns usually force the server to volley the bail up, ng it

drops rapidly after clearing the net. Flat shots of low achieve the same purpose

trajectory to some extent.

The return should never be high,
