Pretty sure I won't be calling. Yikes!

Of course, "brush" contact/interference isn't slam contact or hit contact. As they learn to allow "brush" contact/interference to happen, they may slam/hit their arm a bit harder than intended. In my opinion, some of this is explained by not allowing the arm to internally rotate (IR) through release. You watch the "elite" pitchers pitch. While it may appear that they are slamming their arm into their hip, it isn't really a slam/hit, at least not to the point of significant bruising.
I would say, let it heal a bit and then continue to work on correct IR (Boardmember) and not as much on brush, but tell her to not avoid brush, but do avoid slamming/hitting. That's my novice opinion.

In the brief year that DD has been heavily involved with pitching, we have been around a few different pitching coaches and clinics.
Heavy doses of hand on top, slamming the door etc. etc. But, I have also found positives from these different coaches/clinics, and DD is getting accomplished at ignoring certain things as well.
DD is doing a U of O pitching clinic this weekend. I am hoping it will be a good experience for her.
