My DD is a good contact hitter, very strong kid for her age(14U), has one of the better batting averages on her TB team, but uses mostly her upper body for her swing. Over the winter I would like to work with her to improve her swing.
I ask this question in the "Hitting Practical" section because I am not going to completely redo her entire swing. She has a nice swing, but its like her timing is off and her upper body starts moving before her hips. She finishes late as a result, I believe. I love the phrase "hips lead the hands" because if she were to swing in that manner, her hits would be more powerful.
Any ideas on drills we can work on to correct her muscle memory?
I certainly appreciate any help.
