Looking for some feedback on my DD. She is 14 years old. I posted three fastball pitches with a slow motion view of each right after the regular speed.

Some things I know that we see (some of which we are working on, some of which we'll save for later):
1) Lots of wasted motion at the start (taking ball above/behind head)
2) Turns push foot sideways during backswing (just started fixing this, kinda easy to fix)
3) Her arm seems like it should be bent at the elbow a little more
4) Her left leg lands almost locked
5) She is a little forward at release that continues to way forward after
6) Her arm finish is very high
7) Her right leg/drag foot finishes too far from her left leg
8) For some reason her right shoulder seems to come up high after release.
What do you see? I'm curious about feedback on how well she does with internal rotation.
Anyone have any drills to keep her back and eliminate the high finish? I think those are the highest priority things to focus on, what do you think?
