Is it common to occasionally throw the ball off of your stride leg? DD does this at least once or twice every few throwing sessions. Is there something specific that I should be looking for in her mechanics that may be causing this? Stepping across the power line perhaps?

No, I don't think I have ever seen it. I am having a hard time imagining how it might happen

I had a girl who occasionally hit her plant leg. I had to check in with dad to see what the cause and solution was. Like Chris mentioned, her plant foot angle was too closed and she also collapsed at the knee too much. A focus on driving more squarely and improved posture/resistance eliminated the issue and improved her form overall.
