    My DD is currently on a 14u B team that will most likely be going A in Maryland. She is in her freshman year now. She pitches 59 mph, has a pretty good flip change, drop and drop curve. She plays outfield when not pitching and is a middle of the order decent contact hitter. She wants to play...

    14u video analysis

    DD is working hard. The experts on this site have always been so helpful to her progress, so I figured it was time for another round of advice. She is inconsistent with her speed. She has hit 56 a handful of times, but usually hovers around 53. All of the clips below are fastballs at 53...

    14u help please video

    Ok, she's 13. Just last summer she was very accurate and could hit 54 mph. Now she's from 48-51 mph and accuracy is not the same. Here tech wasn't perfect before, but this is worse than it was. I have a pretty good idea the main problems from the video, but what do you experts see, and what...

    Wrist pain

    My DD is 13 playing in 12u. Worked very hard over the offseason and still is in the season. Pitches about 3-4 times a week including games. Started having pain in wrist in a few spots, a bit on the top and mostly on the side up the forearm pinky side. Nothing too bad yet. Ice and...

    pitching glove?

    My 13 year old DD is a pitcher and outfielder. She has a nice 12.5 glove she likes, but it is kinda heavy. Her pitching coach told her she might want to think about getting a lighter smaller glove for pitching. 1. is this necessary? 2. if so, what are some good gloves for pitching? Thanks

    Bad habits coming back

    So my DD is 13 on 12u. she struggled in the fall with a variety of technical issues which drained her speed. She busted her but in the off season to correct herself. The coaches were very impressed at her early season workouts a few weeks ago. Speed went from 44 in the fall to 48, and looked...

    Loss of pitching speed 12u

    We can’t figure out why she has suddenly lost speed. Background; she changed from hello elbow about 4 months ago. She was at 43 mph early then jumped to 46 quickly. She pitches about 3-4 a week and has had some ups and downs this season. She pitches for a rec team and backs up on her...
