QB Throwing Drills for Arm Strength and Accuracy
The best throwing drills for youth quarterbacks to develop arm strength, mechanics, and accuracy safely.
Build a Better Throw
A great throw combines mechanics, arm strength, and accuracy. These drills develop all three in a safe, age-appropriate way.
Throwing Mechanics Drills
Wall Throw Release Drill
Develops a smooth, repeatable release. The wall gives instant feedback on your throw.
Knee Throwing Drill
Isolates the upper body to build proper arm motion and shoulder rotation.
Arm Strength Drills
Long Toss Build-Up
Gradually increase throw distance to build arm strength safely. Never throw through pain — stop at your comfortable max.
Medicine Ball Rotational Throw
Builds rotational power from the hips and core — the source of throwing velocity.
Accuracy Drills
Target Accuracy Station
Throw to specific targets to improve placement.
Moving Target Throws
Hit a moving receiver to develop lead-throw accuracy.
Safe Arm Development
- Always warm up before throwing at max effort
- Never throw through pain — pain means stop and rest
- Build gradually — arm strength takes time
- Use your whole body — power comes from legs and hips, not just the arm
- Rest matters — give your arm recovery days
