Coach James,
When throwing against a carpet or taught net, you must use Manual mode so that only the toss is measured. If the app is set to Auto mode, the bounce off a net or carpet often triggers a reading that will overwrite the pitch statistic.
25 feet is too short a distance unless the pitcher is throwing quite slowly.
Also, when throwing into a net, the ball must stop sharply and not spin down as it stops. Net don't always do that well, but usually a heavy carpet will work to do that.
