My son just recently started playing TT. He is developing fairly quickly, and now he wants to start playing games. However, he can't serve at all yet unless he just flat hits it.
Since I am not a TT coach, what would like to know what is the best/correct/easiest way to learn some basic useful serves for kids.
I assume it would go something like this:
1. Basic FH backspin.
2. BH backspin
3. BH side spin.
4. Tamahawk (Ovtcharov style)
5. Hook serve or something like this
I'd say he is still a bit too short for trying pendulum at 4'8" (not even talking about skill level)
So far I just asked him to try basic FH backspin serve.
Is there a better order in which to teach serves to kids? Any good instructional videos?
Thanks
