FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1941 ——_—_—_—_—_— FOOTBALL FUNDAMENTALS 5.—Forward Passing ptr cd BAUGH fashngion Redskins All-League Back ———————LK Usne-iated Préae Peature Service) Any football player can throw a football but to © forward pass correctly and accurately is an- other thing “Ye might say that “how to forward pass” actually “how to ward passing”. Most. important is the move- ment of taking the ball from center and getting as quickly as Possible, right or left, to the spot where your protection — the blockers—is supposed to form. Get there quickly and get holding the ball chest high, and balancing yourself so as to be means improve for- able to move in any direction as > Soon aS you're set—and be sure not to spread the feet—look over your field for your receiv- ers. When: you've ‘picked, your re- ceiver, the throwing act should include a ‘step off the right foot, left foot. pointed towatd. the ob- jective. Of course, if the passer is left-handed this - should be reversed. If the receiver is to take a short pass, about six or seven yards beyond the line of scrim- mage, let him have the ball as fast as possible after he makes his feint and break-away from the defensive man covering him. This should always be a bullet pass, as the faster the ball trav- els the less chance the defender has of recovering himself and intercepting the ball, or of cov- ering the receiver so that he can not make the catch. ‘On long passes where the re- ceiver is trying to race behind the halfback or safety man. the pass should be a lob, or a looping pass. so that the re- ceiver can run the bail for the catch. All flat zone passes should be of the bullet variety, thrown so fast that the def¢nsive man can not get up quick enongh to in- tercept and to afford the receiv- er the chance of not only mak- ing the catch but also of dodg- ing the defender. As to gripping the ball, this should be ruled by how the ball feels in your hand. I recommend the ball be held firmly but not too tightly. In my estimation the most efficient passing is done when the passer has both feet on the ground. When you want to hit a tree with a rock you dont jump into the air to do it. Some pessers when tryitg fo pass while tanning. leap into the air fo propel the ball I be- lieve that detracts from their accuracy. : For youngsters just starting out in football I advise that they do not attempt to throw the ball with all their might If they want ta be good passers they should develop accuracy with short passes, which help the wrist ac- tion. Long range passing will come with time and physical growth and strength In closing 1; want , fo empha- size the fact that a ‘successful passer must know the character- istics of Wis redetvers” “He must study the way they run, how they feint and.turn away from | thie defensive players, and how they can judge the speed of the ball in flight.
