1. Adopt ready position.

2. Feet comfortably apart. The weaker or guiding hand is free to move up and down the handle of the hurl.

3. Slide the weaker hand into the Lock position. Bend the elbows to raise the hurl.

4. Bend the knees slightly. Eyes on the ball. Swing the hurl downward with a wristy action.

5. Body weight is transferred from the right to the left as the swing is completed.

6. Strike the ball flat on with the bas of the hurl.

Points to note:

• Mistakes can occur because:
• Feet are not comfortably apart.
• Knees or elbows not bending.
• Not transferring weight from right to left as ball is struck.
• Ball placed too far out from feet.
• Trying to hit the ball too hard.
