I coach 10U and what I find at this level is that girls tend to cheat on a swing and wind up kind of creeping at the ball particularly against faster pitchers. Basically they start to slowly move the hands down and forward when the pitchers in her windup to get a head start on the swing. They wind up loosing all power and swinging under the ball. I think this is why people start to tell kids to keep the elbow up and swing down to the ball.
