Step 2 • Bring the football directly next to your ear. • Keep your shoulders lateral to your target. • Keep your eyes focused on the target. • Make sure your chest is broad. • Your feet should be a little wider than shoulder width
Step 3 • Keeping your elbow on your throwing arm high, thrust forward • During a throw there should be three places where you could take a “picture” of the target/ • The camera would be on your chest facing your target and that “picture” of the target. • 1 of them being before you throw. • 2 being in the middle of the throw • 3 being after the throw
Step 4 • Your lead foot should be pointed toward your target. • Your back foot is used for power.
