Description: The tennis serve begins with the racket-side foot placed parallel to the net and the lead foot pointed at the nearest net post. As the toss is made, the racket arm extends downward to begin an upward and forward circular motion. The ball is released overhead and just in front. As the ball descends, the body rotates, and the head of the racket moves explosively through the ball.
