DD is starting her first year at 12U. Working (all though not enough for me....with bball, dance & such) on hitting. DD seems to hit fairly well but we are working on getting rid of bat drag issues. Bottom half is working well...good hip rotation, up on the toes with back foot at contact, weight transfer looks good. Problem is the upper half. She wants to rotate the shoulders as much as the hips. If I understand things (which may not be the case), She needs to learn to keep an angle on her front arm(elbow) thru contact. Straightening the front arm only occurs after contact. The shoulders should seem to tilt more up (vertically than horisontally). I understand that there will be horizontal movement but not as much as the hips? When I don't say anything to her to remind her...at the end of the swing(finish) she has her hips and shoulders sqare to the pitcher. She is a right handed batter. How do I get this corrected? drills?
