- third step is explosive and large
- in the air the hip should go backward together with the throwing arm

- point after the ball where it should go
- land on the same leg as you jumped off

Feint and Throw on goal:

In this drill players receive a wide pass and then move towards the defender.

Once they're within arm's reach they should move as if they're offloading the ball across their body (so a right hander would feint the pass to the left). At the same time they they should drop their left shoulder to make the move more convincing.

After doing this the attacker should quickly shift their weight and push off their left foot to explode in the opposite direction and run around the right of the defender.
