My daughter suffered a UCL tear 2 weeks ago and could not finish her season. It is not on her dominant arm which the DR said was a good thing; however, I did explain to him that arm may not be her throwing arm but it is used to catch a ball and it is used in the batting mechanics of a swing. She is out for at least 8 weeks. The challenge is, where we are from tryouts start mid to late July and into August. At this point, she is not able to try out for a team. Her current team has disbanded after last week's final tournament. This will be her 2nd year 16U and she has played on an A level team.
Has anyone here had any experience with a UCL tear, and if so how long was the recovery period? Thanks in advance for your help.
