Calling the score: you should always call the score just prior to serving. Your score comes
first, the opponent's score second and the server number last. The serve should be made
within 5 seconds or so after the score is called. Calling the score will alert the opponent
that you are ready to serve.
A good place to hit the ball to is the center of the ad side of the court. Hitting the ball hard
doesn't usually give you any advantage against the good players. Placing the ball is
generally a better tactic than hitting the ball hard. Hard hitters tend to give away points by
hitting the net, or hitting the ball long or wide. Why not let your opponent make the
mistakes?
