hi,
new to the forum, but found some great tips on all aspects of the game . my 12 dd has been pitching for almost 3 full yrs now, but we still have some control issues from time to time. she is 5 ft, 105 pds. she is pretty close to 50 mph. most of what she knows is what i have learned from other throughout my coaching(5-6 yrs) career in little league and watching other play. i also watch allot of ball on tv, and do alot of reseach on the internet.
in a previuos thread some one was speaking about were the ball should be just before her stride foot lands, i think she is in good position here. i think her biggest problem is getting her nose behind her belly button at release. have tried a few things i came across to no avail. any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated.
we just recently started a travel ball team in our area in which i am going to be the pitching coach per say, i just dont want to go through the same trial and error method as i did with my dd.
she has played travel ball for the previuos 2 seasons but the hr. drive to practices 3x a week is just to much.
her little league stats. for this yr were pretty good in my eyes, but against most of the teams she pitched against, most of the girls were scared of her speed. she ended up pitching 29 innings with 59 k's and 31 walks and 16 hits.
had back to back games with 13 k's, with one being in a 14u asa league. her last game in little league she fanned 16....
anyway i am going to paste a few links to her youtube videos we just made tonite, as i stated earlier, any and all feed back is welcome.
thanks
