My 11yo DD has been pitching and taking lessons for a couple of years, just started to transition to IR 4 months ago. She struggles with keeping her weight back. She has other issues with leaning toward third and the timing of her arm only being at 12 at touch down as well. Thanks for your input.

I don't see IR here.

go back to I/R in the classroom thread and check out this video to see what I mean. She has to feel this before really moving forward if she wants to use IR correctly you can and address other issues which you seem to be catching later but basics first!

Drive mechanics is her biggest flaw here.
Notice how her left leg pulls her off the rubber and open?
Her right quad does very little in her drive. This throws off the timing and rhythm making it very difficult to stabilize her body. Therefore you see what you're seeing!
