My daughter is pitching about 5-6 innings per tournament.
We play 2 tournaments a month.
That means she is pitching about one game every other week with her travel team.
She is a strong #2 pitcher on the team, but the team has a bunch of pitchers. In pool games innings are spread pretty even. In bracket play the #1 gets the nod until she starts fading.
We see a pitching coach once a week and put in lots of extra work so she is "pitching" a bunch. She just doesn't get that much game time in the circle.
Our pitching coach mentioned more time pitching in games is the best thing for her.
Is this situation hindering development?
