Hope I'm putting this in the right area. I see areas for hitting, fielding, coaching and training but nothing for throwing. I have a girl on my 14u team that I recruited because she has a cannon for an arm. She play SS for me but over the last 2 months she's developed a really nasty habit. When she draws the ball back, everything is in good position, her elbow is up, ball is good, but then she pauses before throwing. It breaks all her momentum, takes a long time to get the ball from her glove to 1st, which from SS is a killer, and it really weakens her throw. I've tried doing the bottle drill to promote continuous motion rather than stopping but I can't seem to fix it. She knows she does it, but for whatever reason, she can't seem to break it.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can work on this and speed her back up to where she needs to be to be successful at SS?
