    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    Update: Chiropractor said she was pretty twisted up. She had an adjustment and ultrasound therapy. He suggested she watch the glove hand when pitching and try to control it more, and it was likely an acute injury. She will go back Thursday for another check up then hopefully she will back to...

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    There is a huge gap this year. Last year she played up 12u instead of 10u and almost all the girls were 2nd year 12u. It was a great fit. This year all those girls moved up and the skill level is just not there with the new girls. She got to play a little 14u last year so hoping he lets her...

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    I feel like if she keeps progressing in pitching that her travel coach will not want her to get injured catching. She is in a fix right now as she is the best pitcher and the best catcher on her team. The #2 catcher has trouble catching for her. She has been catching 2 games and pitching 1 or...

    I have looked into Tincher but the closest coach to us over 3 hrs away.

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    Her team assistant coach was a college pitcher and was giving them to her before winter, but we didn't have an indoor space for them in off season. It is starting to warm back up so hoping to get her back into lessons soon.

    I went into edit mode and slowly moved the bar.

    I grabbed some stills. She is coming up but that glove hand is coming back pretty far making her arch her back. This could be causing some of the pain if it is repetitive.

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    This was her last week. I am not noticing any major issues with her glove hand. She does tend to throw her shoulder which we are working on. I have no idea how fast she pitches so can't say if she has been losing speed or anything lately.

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    My daughter doesn't really swim but she if a forceful pitcher in general. She has an issue with throwing her shoulder into her pitch, I assumed this would cause throwing arm issues, didn't expect glove side. She said she has no pain when laying on the ground doing stretches and has full...

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    I agree about choosing a position. She always just wanted to catch but is becoming a good pitcher. Being left handed also makes pitching more long term for her. She is often the workhorse of her teams so transitioning to taking care of her body is new for her.

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    Her backpack is very heavy. They have to carry a big Chromebook back and forth everyday for school. I carried her bag for her yesterday and was shocked how heavy it was. We have a massage gun so I am going to see if she just has extreme tension built up. She pitched Monday and was a little...

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    She just turned 12. I can't really think of anything different that she is doing. She did say she is playing wiffle ball every day in PE. I warned her not to throw them too hard because the light weight might make her over throw, but that still doesn't explain why the pain is in the glove and...

    Pitching and Catching same practice glove side injury?

    My daughter pitches and catches. Catching has always been her main position but her pitching has taken off this year. Due to the fact that we are usually short on catchers for practices, she will often catch for an hour and then pitch at the end of practice for about 20 minutes. This week she...

    Side Crunching/Leaning Sideways while Pitching (Posture)

    My 11year old tends to crunch to one side when she pitches. We have been working on keeping her shoulders from over rotating, but wondering if this is maybe an issue with a different cause besides just over rotating her shoulders. Is something else causing her to lean in too much. She does...

    11yr old brush contact (photos)

    My 11 year old still has a long way to go but we have worked a lot on brush. I freeze framed some of her pitches today and got some stilled shots of what looks like good brush. Sometimes it is hard to imagine what IR,elbow lead, brush, etc should look like on younger smaller pitchers. Now to...
