USING THE RACKETS

HELPFUL TIP: before playing it is recommended players practice using the rackets to get a feel how to properly hit the ball.

1. Each racket has a special reflective surface on it that is used to "HIT" the ball.

Reflective Side

2.To "HIT" the ball, swing the racket to reflect the light to the other side of the court.

Hold the racket so that it is perpendicular to the tennis court and parallel to the mechanism box ( see illustrations below )

When the light appears on your side of the tennis court, swing the racket to "HIT" the light back toward your opponent. It is more effective to "HIT" the light ball with a forward pushing movement rather than a full swing.

3. To serve the ball simply use the same motion as described above.
