Is catching a fly ball a fine or gross motor skill?

Answer:

Probably gross, since catching a fly ball requires the use of your entire body, not just your hands. It also has elements of reaction time, which is the time it takes for one to react to the knowledge that the ball is on its way and to plan to catch it.
