Hi,
Here are a couple of videos from fall ball. DD only got to pitch 4 innings last season as a first year 12U (four older pitchers ahead of her), now finally getting some innings in. So far so good with 23 K, 2 BB, 2 Hits in 10 2/3 innings against mostly rec players just starting TB. She'll see some more experienced players in the next few weeks and will get challenged a bit more.
We got some good feedback here back in January (http://www.discussfastpitch.com/softball-pitching/8459-11yo-pitching.html) and her new PC had her abandon the flip change. You'll see her leave a change up in the zone on an 0-2 count that got pounded. Good teaching moment! She's been working on a rise this summer, I think she throws one in the first video.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, especially as she's just starting pitching in games again. Thanks!
