Which action is an example of catching a large ball with both hands?

• A. Catches large ball with both hands
• B. Throws a ball overhead
• C. Kicks a stationary ball
• D. Traps a ball against body

Answer: (A)

Two-handed catching is used for large balls to secure possession and control on contact. When you catch with both hands, you cradle the ball, absorb its momentum, and pull it in toward your body, which reduces the chance of it slipping away. The action described—catches large ball with both hands—demonstrates this technique directly, using both hands to secure and control the ball as it arrives. Using two hands is especially important for larger, heavier balls, where one hand alone may not grip or stabilize effectively. The other options involve throwing, kicking, or trapping, which don’t illustrate the act of catching with two hands.
