I suggest entering into weekend tournaments. It helps knowing where to place it to get the winning shots. Hope this helps!

He played for a year or two when he was around 7, but then quit. I played him and found out he was terrible. He signed up for some lessons at our town's indoor courts where they have one teacher per group of 10 kids. He was placed in a younger group, but didn't keep that going long. Then he played for the high school team, and the next time I played him I won 6-4 instead of 6-0. So, I'd say doing high school tennis and maybe some lessons would be smart.

Take lessons when you feel like you're doing something wrong or you want to learn something new, but remember that practicing gives more benefits. Practice will make you master what you already know. Plus less expensive :P. With friends, you can just rally constantly with them, and by yourself, you can buy a basket full of tennis balls and just keep serving with them in an empty court ( I have a daily routine of emptying my basket of 48 balls 6 times) . But you said you don't even know how to serve? Then you will need lessons for those. As for your swings, if you already know your stroke then just rally with a friend. Schedule ONLY PRIVATE lessons because you will learn more and your coach will focus on your playing. Schedule them every 2 weeks (or 1 week if you need it) so it won't collide with your practicing.
