Man, am I glad that I found this site. I have been working with my little girl (looks like ppl would call her my DD) for about 6 months on pitching. Lots of bucket time. I have tried to teach her the basics and I think she has advanced to the point where She needs more help than I currently know to give her. This site has a ton of useful information.
A little about what we have done. I use Ubersense to slow down her pitching motion on video so I can study her mechanics. She plays on a travel team and recreation. She threw 48% strikes during her rec season. I used a 1/8 second slow motion setting to calculate her speed which I got to be 38 mph. I have started calling locations with her, up down in and out. She plays SS for the travel team but she will have to be one of the pitchers next year.
I was reading about IR. It looks like she does this naturally but I don't know of she does it enough. A video is linked below. Thanks in advance for any advice.
