catching coach,
hope things are well. im looking at your clip right now so here is what i see in it.
- as the ball hits his glove the students arm is extended out to catch the ball. his body doesnt do anything until after impact, there is no momentum built up and he is going from a stand still.
- when he does transfer to his hand and bring it back to throw you can see him pause as his feet get set up to throw. that pause shows he is not really using his lower half, and even when he throws the ball it looks like it is all arm.
- even though its a drill, there is no explosiveness in his actions. his arm is short and looks like he has some size on it but there is also a lot of upper body effort in this throw. he looks more like he is just getting into a position instead of driving off his back side.
i dont see any urgency in this individual to get rid of the ball
