FAQs Coaching Throwing the Ball

How do I throw  the ball?

Step One

Know that the overhand throw is both easier and more accurate.

Step Two

Grip the ball with your fingertips, using hardly any of your palm. Use either two or three fingers and your thumb to hold the ball, folding the others in toward your palm.

Step Three

Turn your head toward your target.

Step Four

Rotate your body sideways, extending your glove toward the target for balance.

Step Five

Pull the ball back.

Step Six

Throw - your arm goes up and out to your target, your wrist snapping just as the ball is released. Your thumb comes off the ball first, and then your fingertips do.

Step Seven

Follow through by moving your arm out and down across your body.
