How the power bar works
Step
Every throw starts and ends with the power bar. You trigger it, watch it move, and stop it at the right moment. Hit the marker and you land a perfect spiral; miss it and the throw suffers.
- Start the bar click, tap, or press R2 to get it moving.
- Watch for the marker it appears while the bar is in motion and shows you the exact stopping point.
- Stop on the marker press the same input again when the bar reaches that position.

Earning cash in practice
Tips
Hitting rings while you practise earns you cash, and that cash buys upgrades that carry directly into the competitive side of the game.
- Aim every throw at the rings in practice — each one you hit adds cash to your total.
- Spend that cash on Accuracy upgrades so your throws land closer to the marker.
- Put cash into Throw Strength to extend the range of your passes.
- Pick up Money Boost upgrades to increase how much cash each ring is worth.
Winning a live drive
Check
Live drives are where you face actual teams. Run through these before and during each play.
- Read the routes watch how the defenders move so you know where space will open up.
- Find the open receiver look for the player who has separation from the defence.
- Hike the ball when you have a target in mind.
- Release the throw and hit the marker for a perfect spiral.
- Chain perfect throws together to trigger Hot Hand.
- Beat the team to advance up the league ladder and face the next opponent.
