Yes, the times and CFA scores are for real. Head shaking real. My MIDN says most aim to max out as many parts of the CFA they can. Not average, but max. It can be done.

So true. It is the one portion of the WCS that they have 100% control over. SAT, class rank, recs, they have limited control. CFA they do have complete control.
Any Females out there have their BBall throw score? Only issue for my DD. She maxes all other scores except the BBall throw. We see 42' as the average, anyone get less?
I've tried the form in that video and in my experience it doesn't work very well.Any Females out there have their BBall throw score? Only issue for my DD. She maxes all other scores except the BBall throw. We see 42' as the average, anyone get less?
Have your DD watch this video -- about the 2 min mark for the basketball throw. It really is about technique in order to get the distance.
In the video you put the person didn't bring the ball downwards, that's the main difference. I think bringing the ball downwards gives you a lot more room to cock it back which allows you to get more momentum. But to each his own. The method in the video you posted may work better for some.Both videos show the person leaning back and throwing with their whole body. For my DS, having never played a ball sport, he needed to work on technique and he thought he had to throw with his arm only, but he could never get distance on it. After watching a couple of videos (maybe he watched both of these, I don't know) and practicing, he was able to get between average-max score. The BB throw is often the event candidates struggle with.
Your DD passed with a 32 foot basketball throw?When my DD took the PFA at the Summer Seminar, I think she did something around 32' on the basketball throw. It is not something she ever practiced. They told her at the academy that the PFA had to be uniform across the academies and that Army wanted the basketball throw included, Navy really didn't care. When they gave awards at the end of the week for top performers on the PFA, they excluded the basketball throw. She had no problem passing the PFA. All this to say that I wouldn't worry about spending a great amount of time on practicing the basketball throw. If she maxes the other areas, they won't care how far she can throw a basketball.
