I’m puzzled by this whole thread. Who is working on mechanics after 14U? DD is 13 and has thrown thousands of pitches. Her muscle memory is pretty well ingrained. By the time a kid hits 15, her mechanics are either pretty sound or else she’s found another position to play.
In a typical lesson, her coach spends 80 percent of the time calling out spots to hit, and then making very small adjustments to maximize a pitch’s effectiveness. She does things like burpees when she misses more than 35% of a sequence.

Even pitchers in college still work on mechanics. They wouldn’t be there if they relied on what they were doing at 14U.
