Way back in the olden times when DD was 9 I made her a target zone with a gymnastics pad and some walls to catch any errant pitches - down in the basement. Used real balls, no socks for her. Broke every light in the entire basement! Regardless of location. I swear she could throw a pitch around a corner and break a light in an adjoining room. Replaced the lights and built chicken wire protectors for all the fluorescent tube fixtures. Nothing like real balls to learn with !! Must have been a rising-double corkscrew curve ball !!
