Putting spin on the ball?

What's on your mind?

My DD doesnt seem to have the right spin when doing snap drills. So I put some black tape on it and you can see the odd spin.

I suggested when she snap, she pull or curl her fingers back on the seam to help get the spin. I will talk to coach next lesson but decided to see what others think. She also has small hands so she may still have a hard time with the 12" ball.

Is she able to get all five fingers on the ball? Generally, my little finger hangs off and doesn't do anything, but she will need to get all of her fingers on the seams. I tell the girls that their finger nails go on the seams, then the middle finger pulls back on the seam to get the spin.

She can do these spins,even in the house. There are several drills available, PM me if you need those.
