| Junior Coaches Corner HOW TO FIND, CARRY AND HOLD A PROPERLY FITTED BALL. THE BEST THING TO DO IS TO GET YOUR OWN CUSTOM FITTED BALL YOU WON’T REGRET IT. KEY PARAMETERS: THE BALL WEIGHT MUST FIT THE PERSON ACCORDING TO AGE, SEX AND STRENGTH; THE FINGER AND THUMB HOLE SIZES SHOULD FIT LIKE A GLOVE; AND THE SPAN BETWEEN THE THUMB AND FINGERS NEEDS TO BE COMFORTABLE - NOT TOO SHORT OR LONG (A PENCIL SHOULD FIT COMFORTABLY BETWEEN THE PALM AND THE BALL WHEN THE THUMB AND FINGERS ARE INSERTED IN THE BALL). PICK THE BALL UP OFF THE RACK WITH BOTH HANDS. PLACE MOST OF THE WEIGHT OF THE BALL IN THE NON-DELIVERY HAND AT ADDRESS. HOLD THE BALL IN THE DELIVERY HAND WITH A FIRM, LOCKED WRIST AND KEEP THE HAND UNDER OR BEHIND IT AT ADDRESS. TRY TO STAY RELAXED WITH ALL OTHER MUSCLES. AVOID TENSION. |
