My DD is 10 almost 11 and is beginning to learn to pitch. She took some lessons from a very well successful D1 pitcher this past fall. We have gegan to start back pitchinf=g but the young lady who was teaching her has went back to school as a GA.
My question is since i'm new to the pitching side is, she was being taught to try and throw her fastball by griping the ball at the C, with her fingers and thumb on a seam. then she was taught to throw it by using a flip at action. I know that this is the correct way to throw it by all accounts that i have read. She is having a tuff time being consistent with this technique. She has a natural way of throwing her fastball, which i think is similar to the bullet spin.
The way she throws it her her palmis almost facing third base when she releases it. Don't know if this is good or bad. Help!!!!
Hope this makes since.
