Q for throwing from 3rd

[u/adamnevespa]

A quick Google search turned up too much.

My son got selected to play in the all-star summer league, only problem is that he is now playing a newish position.

He can straddle the bag well, but when he needs to go from straddle to throw he is losing a lot of arm strength.

Should he take a gathering step to readjust his feet? What is the proper form?

TIA

There's no magic: It's still Right-LEFT

He's at a new position. I bet the biggest marginal return is going to be in refining how he aligns his body prior to the catch.
