3 Ways to Improve Your Serve on the Tennis Courts

Tennis is a great way to relieve tension and work out your various muscle groups at the same time. Of course, it helps to practice a lot, and fortunately, our apartments in Gunbarrel with tennis courts provide ample opportunities for you to pick up a game or two. When you are out there on the courts, be sure to try the following tips to improve your serve:
  • Practice your toss. You want to make sure the toss is consistent.
  • Serve with an upward motion. You want to make sure that your left arm is completely extended and bring your wrist down when your racquet makes contact with the ball.
  • Get used to "The Trophy Position". This is the correct stance for you to take and will make a big difference in both your accuracy and the power of your serves.
The bottom line is that you want to take your time and practice so that you pick up the correct form that you can consistently repeat each time. For more information about our apartments in Gunbarrel with tennis courts, send us a message, and a member of our team will be happy to tell you all about our apartment community.

Join your fellow Coloradans on Dec. 10 as we give back to our Boulder community. Starting at 12 a.m., make a donation to local non-profit organizations within 24 hours to support Colorado Gives Day 2013. On ColoradoGives.org, search for charities by location and cause, and click "Donate Now" on their profile page to donate as little as $10 by credit card or bank account information. Here, you can also set up recurring donations to keep the giving going all year. In addition, every donation made will get a boost from FirstBank's $250,000 Incentive Fund. Plus, if you get all your friends to support your favorite non-profit organization, that charity will be entered in a pool of prizes of $5,000 each (for organizations with 30 or more donations made). As even more incentive to donate, donors can go to FirstBank's Facebook page on Dec. 10 to answer trivia questions and donate a prize to their charity of choice. So, who can you donate to? If you want to keep it local, check out organizations like the Humane Society of Boulder Valley, Boulder Valley Women's Health Center or Boulder Community Hospital Foundation (search our zip code 80301). ColoradoGives.org also features more regional causes like the Alliance for Sustainable Colorado and Bicycle Colorado. In conjunction with Colorado Gives Day, you'll find events to celebrate the day, like cocktail parties, benefit concerts and other special events. Tell your philanthropic neighbors at our Gunbarrel apartments how you plan to give back this holiday season at The Habitat Apartments on Facebook.
