TENNIS SHOTS
• In tennis, there are a variety of types of
shots (ways of hitting the ball) which can
be categorized in various ways.
• In this presentation we will explain all of
these types of shots.

SERVICE
• The service is the shot that starts the
point in tennis. The service is hit from
behind the baseline and on one side of
the court into the service box
diagonally from the server. The tennis
player usually tosses the ball in the air
and hits the ball at it's peak height in
order to get the best angle possible.
• Many professional players can hit
serves well over 100mph that are
nearly impossible to return. When a
serve is hit that the opposing player
cannot hit, this is called an ace.

FOREHAND
• The forehand is often the easiest and the first
stroke or shot that the tennis player learns.
• The forehand is struck from the dominant side of
the body by swinging the racquet in the direction
of where the player wants to place the shot. It is
called a forehand because the racquet is held in
such a way that if one were to strike the ball
without the racquet, it would hit the palm of
your hand.

BACKHAND
• The backhand is sort of the opposite of the
forehand.
• The backhand shot is made by swinging the
racquet away from the tennis player's body or on
the opposite side of the body from the hand that
is controlling the swing.
• For most of the 20th Century it was performed
with one hand, using either an eastern or
a continental grip.
• The first notable players to use two hands were
the 1930s Australians Vivian McGrath and John
Bromwich.

VOLLEY
• A volley shot is where the tennis player strikes the
ball before it bounces.
• The idea is to return the ball quickly before the
opponent can adjust. Often players will charge to
the net and then volley the ball quickly back at
the opponent for a winner.

LOB
• The lob is a very high shot. It is usually hit for one
of two reasons:
1) to hit the tennis ball just out of reach of an
opponent that is at the net
2) as a defensive measure to gain time to get back
into position on the tennis court.

DROP SHOT
• The drop shot is almost a trick shot. It is used
when the opposing tennis player is far back in the
court.
• The tennis ball is hit softly and just over the net
to try and get it to bounce twice before the
opponent can reach the ball.
