She certainly has the body to be a really good pitcher...she looks strong with long arms.
I got to be blunt with you...her timing is horrendous. Everything is out of synch. She needs to back off from pitching and work on throwing the ball. She is not going to fix this in 30 minutes.
1. She needs to learn how to play pitch and catch underhanded. What do I mean? Nice and relaxed, no crazy pre-motion, no huge push off with the legs at the beginning, just a nice controlled circle and throw the ball to you. Think about playing pitch and catch overhand from maybe 30 feet...relaxed, smooth, no big exertion.
2. For her arm motion, I would have her throw with her right arm next to blanket or wall or something. She starts off her motion by taking her right arm way to the right, which is just causing all kinds of problems. She needs to try to stretch her arm up at the top of the circle. It might help to do K drills. She gets open, with her right foot pointing at 3B. Takes her arm to 12 and stretches it out so it is almost straight, palm behind the ball, the ball facing home plate, and then she pulls down and throws. She should let her lower body close to about 45 degrees.
3. Her right foot is turned so that it points to 2B. She should practice just the push off and nothing else. there is anything crazy going on with the push off....The kid leans back and then jumps off the right leg. You need to have her land facing home plate, not 3b.
4. Two drills for her.
Walk throughs...and a drill called 3 pump. In three pump she gets open (but not *too* open), puts her weight on her right foot, and puts the ball of her left foot on the ground. Then does three rotations with her arm, throwing on the third rotation. Each rotation she is to touch the ground with her left toe. The purpose of the drill is to teach her to keep her weight back on her right foot. She'll look like a reciprocating saw when she first does this. The goal is for her to keep her torso over her right foot as she does the rotations.
