I would correct the front arm collapsing.






Getting the front arm up will help keep her connected, give her a better path.

Some MLB players appear to finish where your daughter does, however if you look closely they are even with their front shoulder at extension, then pull their hands up. Your daughters path is too vertical or loopy for my taste. Look how JD finishes straight across his chest.

If you notice though Donaldson hasn't lost his stretch in the top pic. She has lost majority of any stretch she has had up to that point.

Stare at the hip lines in post 181. Get that to match.

Posture and rotation. This place is 2 minutes from my house. I’m going ti check it out.

I think most don’t need mobility work. They just need to feel what the right way is. Be leery if they tell you she needs a bunch of this or some of that. Usually ends up being nonsense. Hopefully it works out for you.

Edit: and it’s not load ‘into’ the back hip. That’s early extension usually as well. It’s actually what your dd is doing in her latest tee swing.

Load against/around the spine w the proper tilts gets the pelvis in a good position to leverage the ground quickly wo losing the sequence or body angles. The body angles change when we adjust to pitches at toe touch, not before.

Does she always make this Shift move right here. Even in the game?

Look at Post 168..she does something similar but it is before the ball is pitched it seems so it just gets her into her setup (which in and of itself could be a problem if it messes up her setup). That said, you don't make a kid a robot either so it is a fine line..
