Another pass that you want to keep in your repertoire is the overhead pass. The overhead
pass is effective during the game when you have a lot of space between you and the person
that you're trying to pass it to and, you actually want to get it there with some zip
so that the defense doesn't have time to get in between and try to steal the ball. The
important thing with the overhead pass is, you want to, it's exactly like the pass is
called, you want to come over the head. So you come over the head and when you pass it,
just as any other pass, you want to step into the pass. So, when you come, you want to come
over the head, come down, step into the pass and you see how my hands are facing my man.
So when you pass, your hands need to face your man when you're complete with the pass.
That's called follow through. So, when you're catching, also, just like the other passes,
you want to step into your catch. So, catches it and, immediately if I see another man that
I want to pass it to, I hit him with the overhead pass, stepping into the throw. Just something
else that you can keep, kind of keep in your repertoire whenever you're looking at a man
that's quite a distance from you and you want to pass it to him without the defense coming
in and trying to steal it. So, keep that in mind whenever you're playing ball; the overhead
pass is really effective.
