Return of Serve (Forehand, Two Hand Backhand, and One Hand Backhand)

Hey Team,

These are well done videos of the "return of serve" which is the second most important shot of the game.

Notice that in all three types of returns you must start with a wide base, hit with a dynamic motion to gain power from the body, and adjust the back-swing (less dip and length) and still hit through with a full follow-through. The use of the outside leg is extremely important.
