Step 3: Position the ball slightly in front of your chest, using your non-dominant hand as a guide.
Close-range passing technique
Passing the ball from close range requires a slightly different technique to ensure a straight and accurate throw.For close-range passes, stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your knees bent.
Hold the ball in both hands, with your dominant hand on top and your non-dominant hand supporting the ball from below.
Keep your elbows close to your body and bring the ball up to your chest. Aim for a point just above the receiver's head and release the ball with a smooth, pushing motion.
Accuracy and consistency
Develop accuracy and consistency in close-range passing through repetition and practice. Start by practicing passing against a wall or with a partner. Gradually increase the distance and incorporate movement into your practice.Focus on maintaining proper body position and alignment throughout the pass.
Use your non-dominant hand as a guide to ensure the ball is released in the desired direction.
Practice regularly to develop muscle memory and improve your overall passing technique.
