First off let me say, I'm new to this forum and very stoked I found it. I could literally talk softball all day. I love the sport and what it is teaching my DD about drive and dedication along with some great social skills. My whole family is totally hooked.
Now on to my question. My DD is 9 playing at 10u A level. She is right handed and bats left. I think her swing is pretty mechanically sound, and she has good hand speed to the ball. But it just seems when she makes contact with the ball (from the pitcher) it seems like the balls is overpowering her and she has trouble finishing her swing. My question is, is this because she is naturally right handed and her left hand is not strong enough or is it possibly her size? (she is pretty small) It could be very possible that I'm over analyzing this also....lol
I appoligize if I posted this in the wrong forum?
Here are some vids of her in action. Thanks for any help!!
