There was an instructor here that would promise a parent 5mph in just one lesson.
Then he'd do the ol, push the gun at the ball to accomplish it.
I guess he didn't specify how he could get that 5mph.

Someone needs to post the video of "Radar Grandpa" for anyone who has not seen it! LOL
 
Riseball your dad and my daughter sound similar at the same age, I'm just excited to see what a professional coach can do with my dd as she has never been taught by a professional and is throwing consistently now in that 52-54 mph would it be out of the realm to gain 5 mph or better from professional coaching? If that is a reasonable expectation then she would be in the high 50s to 60 as a 12u player n I agree ball placement n movement are by far more important the older she gets but in saying that she's very good at ball placement n is getting better n better with her specialty pitches.I didn't mean to try n start anything on here I was just posting the factsvthat I know that pertains to my dd.

It's reasonable, but plan on it being more toward the end or even after her 12U season. Is DD playing on the SD renegades?
