The underhand serve is a good serve for beginners to use. It is simply another way of getting the ball over the net. The ball is held in one hand and hit by the heel of the other hand. The underhand is the serve that is generally not as effective as the overhand serve.

Depending on whether you are right handed or left handed, hold the ball in front of you with your less dominant hand at waist level. With you other hand, form a fist and pull it backwards straight behind you. You should have your less dominant foot just behind your dominant foot. Swing through and hit the ball out of your hand. Be sure to follow through into the court. For the best technique have a coach or experienced player assist you.

Hold the ball low in your non-hitting hand, close your hitting hand into a fist, and hit the ball out of your hand with your wrist. Scoop it up and forward.
