Thanks guys, this is what I was looking for.
Mike, don't over think the question. This is just so I can understand what is considered the norm or average for other players or teams in the same age. I see parents who think their kid is the best one on the field but the stats say a complete opposite. I don't want to be the rose colored glasses parent and I also believe its not good to get so absorbed in stats especially at 10u and 12u. I prefer to look at the stats at the end of fall season/spring season just to see if we are improving every six months.

For those that have access to this kind of information either from Game Changer, the official game book, or keeping your own stats, what kind of stats are considered good and great for a full season or half a year with a level A travelball bracket pitcher. Mainly looking for comparisons, IP, GP, W, L, H, R, ER, BB, K, WBP, ERA, and WHIP. No names or team names, just curious to what kind of numbers 12u pitchers produce.

I would concentrate on the stats your DD has control over - BB, K, and WHIP. A poor defense will give up a lot of infield singles that could be outs, so H, R are ER and subject to the quality of the defense behind her.

Goals for my DD at 12U would be 60% strikes, 3:1 or better K/BB, and a WHIP less than 1.5 (whip is also subject to poor defense)

I find this to be extremely fascinating. My daughter was a 2003 on an A level 12U team this year. She was the #2 pitcher on the team. Her stats were roughly as follows:

IP - 48
H - 48
K - 24
BB - 12
WHIP - 1.25
ERA - 3.2
64% strikes

I'm in the process of trying to explain to her its time to give up pitching.

We played an aggressive schedule in 12's. Not all of our games were on Gamechanger. We played a lot of 14's local and 12's out of state. This is from GC and 54 games recorded. IP: 206, H: 201, K's: 177 BB: 83 ERA: 1.9 WHIP: 1.375 She has a really good defense behind her and the catcher has thrown out a lot of girls who got on base. Team overall was like 112-25. I'm not a big stat guy but this an example of what the OP was looking for in 12's. Plus mine loves ice cream!
