The first match is in London - just opposite Big Ben. Player is to serve and has the ball, the computerised team-mate is running away

Serving is a combination of finding the right position, throwing the ball up, and timing the hit as it falls. Almost a game of skill in its own right

If the hit is mis-timed the ball hits the ground and the opponents score a point and take service

Opponents serve. The animation is quite good and detailed

The ball comes over the net. Player to receive - as indicated by the arrow over his head. The point where the ball will land is marked on the ground. Player must get there and time the return....

Looks like he missed

A successful catch / hit. Now the team mate wakes up and shouts OK

My team mate has this - Will they score a point....?

.... Nope! They push the ball in the air for the player to make the strike ....

... which he fails to do.
