My daughter has developed a really bad habit when throwing. Instead of keeping her fingers on top of the ball, she's getting under the ball and throwing it almost like the revers of a Frisbee throw. Because of the torque this is putting on her elbow from snapping it like that, her elbow is starting to hurt. The pain shes describing really reminds me of how my elbow would feel after throwing too many curve balls back in my pitching days.
She is a pitcher so I'm wondering if some of that spinning of the ball is transferring to her throwing the ball over hand too? Regardless, it's now starting to hurt when she pitches, so it's a major issue.
I'm looking for help on how to break of her of this habit. I'm at a loss of an exercise or dill I can do to help her so if anyone can give me some help, I would greatly appreciate it.
