Track and Field:  Part III Throwing Events
1990- The Athletic Institute
45 min.

    In this third and final installment of the video series "Track and Field", you are taken to Arizona State's track where you will meet a gifted coach, Tom Pagani.  In this video, Pagani has student throwers demonstrate correct technique and drills to fix bad technique.  I found this video to be extremely helpful because it performed the steps to the throw in slow motion and even paused it in mid-action so you could analyze and emulate each part of the correct throw.  I also learned many good drills to correct my errors.  All four throwing events are featured, so it's also economical if you participate in more than one event.
