Re: Soccer Throw or Basketball Shot?

If so, just do a hard soccer shot at the mobiles.
Otherwise, do something (maybe granny shot?) that uses 2 arms for good control.
Really, you can do a soccer throw. You must have a taller ceiling than we do, 11 feet. When we try soccer throw, especially when the goal is over half full, we put them easily through the pvc and bouncy all over the shop near sharp pointy metal, luckily we haven't popped one yet. You must have more height to work with if they didn't miss a shot.
