Tell throwing hard matters more at age 10 than accuracy to the amazingly strong and talented young lady who walked in 8 runs in one inning for us this past weekend. She would disagree. She throws hard but lacks accuracy. WHY??? Cause her core fundamentals are off. I agree with whoever stated that we should focus on form and the fast and accurate will come.
EDIT:
She was crushed at her effort. I had to really try and be positive and supportive. She will be awesome eventually. I just want hope she can remain patient while she is developing. Sometimes at this age they are harder on themselves then many of us realize.
she must not be ready to pitch in games. You can't take a kid who is not ready and have them lob in cookies just like you can't take a kid who isn't ready and have her throw 11 consecutive walks. Where was the coach to keep this from happening? This is more his failure then hers.
