What should be the speed of the toss if the ball is starting at a lower position?

The speed of the toss should be more intense and faster when the ball is starting at a lower position. This approach is necessary to ensure that the ball reaches the proper height for a fair and balanced jump by the players. A faster toss allows the referee to generate enough height for the ball to be clearly visible and accessible to both jumpers, ensuring that the toss is fair and a true contest for possession.

When starting from a lower position, the ball tends to stay closer to the referee, and a more forceful toss compensates for this initial low starting point. If the toss is not executed with enough intensity, it may not provide the players with an equitable opportunity to jump for the ball, which can lead to one player having an unfair advantage. Therefore, a more intense and faster toss is essential to maintaining the integrity of the jump ball situation.
