YouTUBE: Madison Throws Club


I started a new YouTUBE Channel devoted to throwing drills. There are a lot of good sources out there already with great drills and throwing videos.  However, I hope that I can contribute in some way to the success of your throwing or your throws coaching.


There are still lots of videos from meets in Wisconsin and beyond on my other YouTUBE Channel.

2016 WISTCA CLINIC PRESENTATION VIDEOS

COACHES who attended the 2016 WISTCA CLINIC:
It was an absolute honor speaking at the Clinic this year.  Thanks to all of the coaches who make the commitment to attend year after year.  I hope that you were able to garner a few things (or more) that will benefit you and your athletes in the upcoming season(s).

I have created a YouTUBE Channel devoted completely to throws drills. Many of the drills from my clinic presentations please check it out and subscribe, share as you see fit.  I will try to upload at least 1 new video a week.  Click HERE.

MTC Hammer Throwers
KeKe Burks, AJ Musser, Kiley Sabin, Haley Houser, Corinne Franz and Sam Noennig

Great group of Hammer Throwers at MTC yesterday! The Group included some first timers learning the event.  As well as KeKe Burks returning from her Frosh Year at The University of North Dakota where she broke the school record as a Freshman.   Lets get back to work next week.

Corinne Franz Breaks Discus Record

Madison Throws Club's Corinne Franz, a senior at Madison Memorial High School set a new DISCUS P.R. at the Madison City Outdoor Track and Field Championships on Tuesday, May 7, 2013.  Her throw of 145'6" broke the previous record of 136'1" set in 1992 by West's Natalie Overby by nearly 10 feet.
Corinne's throw also broke her own Madison Memorial School record and moves her to #20 on the Wisconsin All-Time list.

Congrats Corinne!

John Godina's UPCOMING Throws Clinics

PHASE 1 - Olympic Lifting Clinc : February 23
PHASE 1 - THROWS Clinic : February 24
PHASE 2 - THROWS Clinic : March 3

I recently had the opportunity to attend John Godina's Phase II Coaches Course.  It was a great day of learning about advanced rotational concepts in the throws.  Lots of different Drills to correct common errors in the Rotational Shot and Discus.
I highly recommend Coaches attend his Phase I Course and Phase II Course if you have the opportunity.
And if athletes have the chance to attend his Phase I, Phase II Athlete Clinic or a World Throws Center Camp, I highly encourage you to sign up.



Advanced Rotational athlete's could try this drill it really forces you to work on staying on the right in the middle and not allowing any weight to shift to the left because you are doing an extra 180 turn at wheel past Power Position.  Great Drill - very difficult - beginners beware...advanced throwers see if you have what it takes to match John's movement.
