When you throw a football, you should grasp the ball in the palm of your hand, with your thumb on one side and your fingers spread, but fingertips touching the laces of the ball, on the other. Pull your arm back until the football is near your ear. As you move your arm forward in a throwing motion, gently pull down on the laces to send the ball off your fingers in a spiraling, spinning motion. This motion gives the ball a fast spiraling motion, sending it firmly through the air toward the receiver.

Which should you do first when you throw a football?
