Top 10 Discus Throwers of All-Time-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DgK_qiSut8
Scorpions - 10 each side - try to touch foot to hand on opposite side...good hip flexor stretch
Double-Leg Eagles - 10 each side - sweep your legs to each side and pause in the middle
Medicine Ball Side Toss (with partner) - 10 each side - have hands ready to absorb the weight
Arm Swings - 10 each side - to warmup shoulders
Arm Swings with Discus - 10 each side - same, except with discus in hand...trunk rotations
Discus Bowling - nice and easy...just like a bowling delivery, roll discus straight off front fingers
Discus Tosses/Finger Flips - toss disc high and let it roll off the front finger
Skimming with Flat Discus - this is with no finger action on the release...just trying to throw the disc level
Skimming with Spinning Discus - now you add pushing the disc off the front finger to get the spin of the disc along with it being level
--
Drills:
Quarter Spin - back of circle, without discus
180 Spin - back of circle, without discus
3/4 Spin - back of circle, without discus...to middle
360 Spin - back of circle, full spin to starting position
Half Turns - with discus in hand

Throws:
Power Throws - standing throw, no steps, full force
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5cF-t55CHM
...in this video they throw bowling pins, I like to use full water bottles at times

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVSBaK5AhiM
Step Throughs - start in circle, but eliminate the turn at the start...start with the step to the middle
South Africans - right foot out the back of the circle to begin the spin

Full Spin - throwers are always going to want to rush to the full spin throw, drills and technique should be valued, especially for beginners...and when working to correct an issue
--
Things to Remember:
1 - Focus on Balance Above
All - if you are off balance, the throw will not go straight or far...build
up speed through practicing the spin drills without a discus
2 - Slow to Fast Rhythm -
start slow with the first step and build up to fast
3 - Low to High - start
in a squatted position and build to the throw where you will be standing tall
with your head held high
4 - Snap Your Hip - hip
drive is going to generate your power to throw far
5 - Keep Your Discus Arm
Long and Straight - have a long lever to build force across the circle and
keep it straight and at shoulder level when you release the discus
6 - Stay on the Balls of
Your Feet - all throughout the circle, with each step you should be off of
your heels
7 - Fly Off Front Fingers
- the discus should fly off of your front fingers and move in a clockwise
motion, not off the back of your hand
8 - Snap Your Lead Arm Down
- as part of the throw and follow through, your lead arm should snap down to
help drive the discus arm forward...this is called creating a block
9 - Create Torque - you
must keep your discus arm back behind your hip throughout the throw to build up
torque (power) to throw far…get a big wind up
10 - Be An Athlete -
throwing the discus should be a fluid movement of grace and power

Four Step Approach to Discus-
(Standing Throw, Step and Turn, Modified South African, South African)

...you will also see a backward "7" in the discus circle in this video, I sometimes draw that with chalk to show the feet position and where the left foot should end as you spin through the circle

Trinity Track & Field Attendance Policy
Senior High Athletes (9th-12th grades): practice Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and have Wednesday mornings as an optional practice day.
Junior High Athletes (7th and 8th grades): practice on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and have Wednesday mornings and Saturdays as optional practice days. However, if they want to be considered for varsity competition, they must be present on Saturdays.
- 3 unexcused misses (missing any meet (unless you are sick), missing a practice without notice) = miss the next meet
- 5 unexcused misses (missing any meet (unless you are sick), missing a practice without notice) = dismissal from the team for the rest of the season or miss another meet at the discretion of the coach
If you are an athlete with conflicts to the track meet/practice schedule (such as spring soccer, work, music, other activities, etc.), any absence from a track meet or practice must be communicated AND approved ahead of time by the coach to be excused.
For an athlete with conflicts, communication will be the key to success and making a hectic schedule work. If you are not willing to communicate well in regard to being at track, I am not willing to allow a modified schedule.
The more advance notice given for a conflict, the greater the chance an absence will be excused.
