Coach

I coach a 5th grade team and a 7th grade team. My assistant coach on the 7th grade team has instructed the boys to “see the throw” before yelling “cut or no cut”. This really has confused the boys on what they should do. Should we do this at these age levels?

I think that is normal for the throw from the outfield.  The words and coaching may be a little different but what I believe is he is asking the control guy to do is wait until he see the throw to tell if it is on line, has a chance to make the put out and at what base.  The control player can't not say cut, hold, cut to ? until he sees the throw.

So the works "see the throw" is telling him to wait and look at the throw and make the decision of where to go with the throw.

It strikes me as decent point, with different words.
