    Different Pitching Distances/Ball

    My 11 YO DD has been pitching for a little over a year. For the last 8 months she has worked with a PC once a week and has made very nice progress. She throws hard, but as a result struggles with consistency from outing to outing. She is presently playing on a 10U Club Team that is playing in...
