Practise session 10 - Fixing errors.

Another factor that can cause the ball to miss the basket is poor angle of release due to a poor posture angle.
If my trunk is not straight up and down and is on a angle either forwards or backwards it will cause the ball to be released on the wrong angle



As you can see in the image above my trunk is relatively straight however i have a slight arch in my back. This arch could have caused me to miss a lot of shots short due to me releasing the ball slightly leaned back. If my back was straight while shooting it would have come out at the correct angle and would have been easier for me to judge the distance needed.

Information collected:

20 shots put up, 9 successful
25 minute practise session
Of the 11 shots missed, 6 missed short, 4 missed left, and 1 missed long.

Reflection:

It was good to have a practise session where i could see the image of myself with an arched back so i knew what i needed to improve on in order to have a more successful shot. I improved my trunks angle over this practise session.
