DD is in the middle of the journey, 14u - going on year 3 of pitching. Outside of the obvious (expensive, time commitment (everyday), pitcher parent stress), I would tell newbies to make sure the arm stays loose. Loose is fast and on the edge of out of control.
We spent so much time concentrating on IR and pronating early to get the drop, that I didn't pay attention to how tight the finish was. Now that DD has control or at least a semblance of it, working on more MPH is tougher without the loose arm.
Also, I can't say enough about a good mentor. DT and his DD have been a godsend. Find someone local that has been through it
