Indirect object pronoun

In this sentence:  "Les lanzo la pelota y deben apagarla con las dos manos."  

I throw you the ball, and you must stop it with two hands.

I don't understand the use of 'Les" is it referring to 'you"?

Hola LIA

Here "les" is the pronoun that could refer to you plural (ustedes) or them (ellos/ellas). So, it's either "I throw you (plural ustedes, formal) the ball..." or "I throw them the ball..." 

Saludos
