Dad, Husband....legend
My DD has been pitching for about 6 months now and turns 11 tomorrow. I am just a dad and know nothing about pitching other than what I've learned on websites. BoardMember's IR thread has been really helpful. I just wanted to get some feedback from some of you more knowledgeable members on what she should work on next. The side view has two pitches, a fast/drop pitch (I have bought into the viewpoint that a fastball is supposed to have 12-6 rotation so it always has some drop to it) and a flip change. The back view is just two fast/drops. Right now we are just working on more leg drive, more elbow bend (for more whip) from 12 oclock to 6 oclock and getting here stride foot consistently at 30-45 degrees (she squares up about half the time). I need some more advice so her pitching doesn't outstrip my knowledge before I can afford to pass her off to an actual pitching coach [video]https://www.youtube.com/edit?video_id=YfZfbbk9kdc&ns=1[/video]
thanks.
thanks.
