Controlling as many variables as possible is crucial for making longterm progress and fully tapping in to your potential in softball. Throwing harder is an achievable goal, and every player should strive for 60mph overhand. It's also important to get good throwing drills and instruction, and that includes leaving bad throwing drills in the past, such as the wrist snap drill, the wrist flick drill, the L-drill, and many others.

Hey man, I just wanted to say that I appreciate the captions, whoever made em.
No problem - what language are you using? I use the TH-cam translate function but I'm trying to do them on all of my videos so they're accessible to more people! - Dan
@@SnapSoftball I read and write English (US). Thanks again!
Don't know any other video about throwing a ball so structured than this one, just great
I was good ball player. I played fast pitch and baseball. In high school I was a pitcher, and that’s where I developed
my throwing arm. After high school, I played fast pitch. No bragging intended, but I could throw a 12 inch softball
over 300 feet. I went to the ball Diamond across the street, and threw 12 inch softballs from the centre field fence
all the way to the backstop, and right over home plate. I’m retired now.
Exclamation point! That’s great for kids. Works for throwing, hitting, running through the bag at first. So good. Can’t wait to use that.
When i trowing.. My arm always felt pain
Hanif Imran you probably have Tendonitis. I have it and it’s not a bad or permanent thing. It’s caused by overusing it. All you need is to go to your doctor and tell them this, they will give you a prescription to help from it swelling. You will also need to get some type of brace.
This is a year late but you possibly could be throwing side arm which causes muscle pain and over working of the joints which will cause a lot of pain. It can be corrected but it will be a major habit that needs to be broken.
Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thanks for the well organized info in the video. Just wondering what exercises to you recommend for arm care?
Your videos are great!
This coach is awesome!
Thanks this is great! i play softball on a select team as a short stop and a center fielder, and realized this last tournament i really need to work on my throws. I used to sidearm a lot and my last coach made me do a windmill throw and now i just do that which i’m trying to break and it’s difficult. Hopefully this will help i’m excited to try some of these things!
I have LOT of other throwing videos on my channel, so keep watching and I'm sure you'll find a lot that helps you. Thanks for the comment.
Girl reading this comment I think I said me to like 3 times. I relate to this comment. If you need tips on how to break it I can help you because I broke mine.
Thank you !
I needed this video so much 😌 Thank you 🙏🏽
You’re welcome! Go practice!
Tomorrow on Saturday July 29-july 30 this is gonna help me throw faster thanks 👍

I'm 61 yrs old and just started playing softball (55 yrs and older) again after a 20+ year hiatus. I had shoulder surgery 22 yrs ago on my throwing arm (torn labrum). I had a very good 1st season playing center field and batted just under .700. They want to move me up next season to the elite league but want me to play 3rd base because of my fielding. I'm reluctant because I've lost so much velocity on my throws over the years. This video is like a coach for me. I work out a lot and stay in great shape but I need to find a way to increase throwing velocity by at least 10 mph. I can make the throw but it's more arching than a rope in order to get it there. I like this video but what else can I do? Its very frustrating because I used to have a rocket arm and right now it just feels dead. Any advice?
I have hundreds of other videos on my channel; I'd suggest watching them. And, slowpitchskills.com is my slow pitch site - there is a free email course and I'm releasing a slow pitch throwing course soon.
Coach, what about the back leg? Should it follow through and continue to come around after the throw or should it remain anchored? Seeing coaches change established mechanics. Always taught to keep the momentum going
What can I do for arm care? And what exactly is it doing? Like am I massaging and taking care of my arms or am I working them even more?
Good questions. This video of mine explains it all: th-cam.com/video/asS25TGP5fs/w-d-xo.html
Where my rainbow throwing squad at??
I'm hereeee
Pick me pick me!! 😂
I can either throw hard or throw accurately. No in between
its your mind, then, that's holding you back.
I have trouble with my shoulder hurting... It's the muscle going to the chest muscle
Wondering what for exercise I can do to help it??
Sorry, I dont give advice on pain. I'd suggest seeing a physical therapist.
Dan, my daughter is opening her front side too soon and loses all of the benefit from her body. It ends up all arms. Any drills to try to correct that? Thanks.
everything you'd need is in my beginner program: www.snapsoftball.com/shes-got-a-cannon-throwing-softball/
I had no experience with softball and I’m 16. When I throw hard it doesn’t go further? I don’t know why And my friends said that I keep “flicking my arm” and I don’t know how to fix that…
sorry im not sure I can help you from across the internet. Starting softball at 16 is tough.
