Basic Technique for the Shot Put
By: Mark Harsha
Portage High School Girls’ Head Coach
Goal One: Shot grip and placement
1. Holding the shot
The shot is held at the base of the fingers not the palm
The fingers are slightly spread apart with the thumb for support.
The hand will be bent back in the cocked position when holding the shot. It looks like you are caring a pizza.

Raise the shot above your head
Lower the shot straight down until it is under your jaw
Push the shot into your neck
Lift your elbow parallel to the floor. Don’t squeeze your elbow towards your back
Check to see that your thumb is pointing down towards your clavicle
The palm should be pointing towards the throwing direction
