My daughter is a pitcher who recently moved from 10u to 12u. She's pitched in one 12u tournament and I just learned that her coach has signed the team up for a 14u tournament for their 2nd tournament. I'm concerned about a few things: (1) will pitching at 43 ft. one weekend negatively impact her accuracy for their third tournament which is a high profile 12u tournament? (2) will it hurt her confidence to get hit a lot by the 14u teams (assuming this may happen with bigger girls and further distance)? and (3) safety concerns about pitching to these bigger stronger girls. What do you all think? Are my concerns valid or is it really not a big deal for a pitcher who has been throwing at 40 ft for 6 weeks to pitch at 43 ft in a 14u B tournament? Appreciate your thoughts
