DD has been pitching for two years, is 14 years old and is moving up to 18 Gold this fall (yes she has natural talent, yes I know only (12) 18Gold teams in SO CA, this is one of them) she has been successful with a closed style for her short career but we are considering a pitching coaching change. He is one of the best in the area, he teaches the open style and told us that it would help with movement on the pitches, add MPH and help her avoid injury in the future. He doesn't need students or money but he sees the potential in her and wants her to change to this style.
