Have a listen, and let us know what you think.

Hi, I'm Rob Carver, author of the book, 366 Days of Tennis, a tip a day to improve

your game.

Today, I got a great tip to help you and your partner hold serve more.

Your partner's serving, you're at the net.

What are you going to do?

Yeah, I know you don't like the volley.

You don't like the poach.

You don't feel very good at the net, but here's how you can help your partner hold serve.

I want you to stand in a different position every point, try to make the returner wonder

what you're up to.

When you do this, you disrupt the returner's rhythm, and that way you're helping your partner

hold his serve.

All right?

Move around, shake it up, and tough.

Have a great day.

Well, there you have it.

We want to thank Rejovenate.com for use of the studio and Signature Tennis for their
