Basically, to serve a tennis ball, you need to toss the ball high enough and in front of you (i.e., toward the net), so that your racquet will make contact with the ball at some point, and so that most of your weight is "behind" the ball, in order to get the most out of the racquet's momentum when it strikes the ball. The server always stands in the half of the court diagonally from his/her opponent's half of the court; the halves are referred to as the "deuce" (right half) and "ad" (left half) sides. At the end of a given point, each player moves to the other half, and the process is repeated until the game is won.

There are 2 people at the half line with the ball and one person lightly taps it to the other in front of them and then the game begins!

To serve in tennis, get a ball, hold the chopper grip on a racket, throw the ball slightly in front of you while swinging your racket onto you shoulder and hit the ball!
