Hahaha...
Thanks for your comments.
She will be 9 in about 5 months. At this point I am trying to make sure I don't talk too much and coach anything out of her. She has no patience for drills, so I basically have to approach it like, "hey, just go throw into the net as hard as you can. She's been at it for 3 weeks, although she did get some lessons from my oldest daughter in a "team environment" last summer and did throw the football underhand during some practices. I guess BM's suggestion of learning to throw underhand first is right.
The other day she was stepping and then, out of the blue, she is leaping today.
Should I tell her to release like Ueno, where the back of the hand faces the pitcher?
Thanks for the comments riseball. Unfortunately, she wont have it. She just wants to throw and has little patience for doing drills or anything else that isn't pitching or home run derby. I need to approach this lightly and let her play. Anything else you can help me with in approaching it like this would be appreciated.
She would definitely play a lot of catch with the football though.
She is either ready to learn how to pitch, or she is not. Sounds to me like she isn't. Best thing you can do is try to limit the amount of bad habits she picks up in the meantime.
