    moving up to kid pitch

    Pitch front toss, side toss , t-drills . Find out which type of ball Hey use at her next level and buy a few. I like to take my Little one outside with different balls and have her swing, 15 mins, 3-4 days a weak, and only if she wants to . Good luck

    Whatever she wants takes precedence.

    Right handed pitcher hitting from the left side?

    My DD pitched R. And coaches attempted to have her slap from left for 2 yrs . Non issue as far as being hit on R arm. Eventually she went back to R hitting, didn't like slapping Answer to 2 nd question is Time will tell, if she develops into a very good pitcher that's what she will become...

    JV Coach

    Understand this is happening to some degree all over the country, for various reasons. Keep quiet, dont be labeled a trouble maker, and understand school ball doesnt matter. At the end of the day, if she is as good as you say, she will play. Tell her to hit- hit- hit when given a chance, and by...

    top 12u pitchers ???

    Again I beleive I was the one that started this with my original answer to the original question, just to remind everyone for a third and last time I said A GIRL hit 62 at a 12u regional tourny in Tenn. this past summer, the coach who told me thios said she was clocked independently by someone...

    Best Pitch

    My DD best pitch is a screwball, she is not overpowering but for some reason it darts in on the batters hands, and at least in our area 12u and even 14u at tiomes have a hard time adjusting, perhaps because a lot of these girls stand to close to the plate. Someone else posted a few months back...

    top 12u pitchers ???

    Again everyone is an expert, what is an expert? I dislike when self proclaimed experts say someone else cant possibly do what there DD cant do. Again please see my original reply to the 1st post ( I am tired of repeating myself). I am not an expert of anything, certainly not pitching, but...

    top 12u pitchers ???

    The tail of the pitch(drop), the glove she is wearing, the jacket, and her mechanics make it unlikely she is throwing that hard.

    top 12u pitchers ???

    I have read some of the doubting thomas experts on this forum so I will give more info. I said a girl from upstate SC hit 62-64 mph (on a radar gun in Tenn. 3-4 months ago). This was at a ? little league/babe ruth 12u regional semi/finals. This girl is 13 now, and is a lefty, and plays for...

    top 12u pitchers ???

    A girl in our area has been clocked in the low 60's, a lefty . Other elite travel ball pitchers mid to high 50's, but there are effective good pitchers throwing well around 50 top, but they have good off speed pitches.

    Coaches, for you: Why or why not let the pitcher throw her movement pitches?

    A very respected pitching coach in Texas teaches fastball and change up until 12u. Then he will incorporate a drop and when your pitcher is consistently above 55mph he will bring in the other movement pitches. Fact is most kids don't throw hard enough to have an effective movement pitch until...
