In touch football, a half pass is a type of pass where the ball is thrown backward or sideways, typically executed by a player who is in motion. This technique allows the ball to be transferred to a teammate while maintaining possession and avoiding being tagged. Unlike a forward pass, which is illegal in touch football, a half pass keeps the play alive and can create strategic opportunities for advancing the ball. It is an essential skill for effective teamwork and ball movement on the field.
