Soccer includes accurate throwing from the goalie. I'd posit that hitting a projectile with a stick accurately is a close cousin of throwing.

That's all the big ones in US and EU that I can think of.

Baseball, basketball, soccer, football, cricket, rugby, hockey, what am I missing?

That’s just throwing with extra steps.

Football hooliganism is also based around accurate throwing of objects.

Good catches. They both fall under throwing, too.

Soccer is just throwing with your feet
