Curve ball help
Getting kids to understand spin is key. So many don't. Very rare to see kids, heck, college kids even, that have 3 distinct pitches. I can only think of 3 from the video I've seen of last year's WCWS. Each of these kids threw a drop, rise, and change. Kleist-Parker-Plain- shaker1

Curve ball help
Nor do I believe anything I read about spins, period. But it's hard to argue with video, eh? Littlejohn is a rare pitcher when it comes to the curve. I've found no other who can get her movement.

I made a different gif, slowed down at 9 and again at 6. It shows me exactly how she manages the spin. Not the typical bulletspun curve Sent...- shaker1

Need Brush Interference help
Believe I would work on posture 1st, then address brush, which will probably be improved. Can't really tell from video, but it looks like she has a forward lean into release It may be better if <!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: dbtech_usertag_mention --> @<u><a...- shaker1

Drive foot turnout looks to be minimal, from what I can see. I wouldn't worry with it. Some of the best in the business turn that drive foot a bit at push off- shaker1
