Very nice overall. If she came to me here's the only things we'd be working on mechanically.
1.) Woking on keeping the maximum hand/wrist rotation over the top and down the back to ball facing out to up vs. turning it down then back up.
2.) Keeping her hips and shoulders closed (sideways) to the target longer to encourage more adduction and a throw that is into and across the hip line vs. how open her throw is. Her plant foot and knee is almost facing forward. The human anatomy isn't made to create resistance to forward momentum when the knee and foot are directly facing the force vector.
BM,
hi.
just a little question on the terminology. "shoulders closed (sideways)" - shouldn't that be shoulders open?
i thought the narrower the pitcher is to the batter (e.g. sideways), the more open she is. the more closed (e.g. slam the door), the more closed or did i get that backwards?
TIA
