Relay Throw


Instructions:
Setup 2 or 3 lines depending on the number of players. Each line should have at least 4 players. Spread the player out depending on age level from about 10 feet for TBall to 90 feet for Babe Ruth. On the word go the first player in each line throws to second player and then the second player and so on. When the ball reaches the last player the process repeats until it gets back to the first player. The team with the ball over the start line first wins that round. Run the contest 5-7 times.

Variations:
If a ball is mis thrown or dropped it must go back to the player who last had the ball. A clean throw and catch must be completed before it can continue down the line.

Coaching Points:
The players seem to like this one. Mix up the stronger players and weaker players in a line. Older players should concentrate on having their bodies and shoulders turned correctly so they can receive and throw without moving their bodies.
