I am an intermediate player, but i just cannot get my first serves in for some reason, they either go into the net or just a little long, and my kick serve just doesn't have any spin on it whatsoever, althugh i hit it in all the time. Does anyone have suggestions for a palyer like me?

What kind of grip should be used in the serve?

the Continental grip

Yes. A continental grip allows you to hit all spins- flat, slice and kick. A 'pancake' grip, while good for pace, is not ideal in creating any spins.
