Interesting. You think it would be different if you lined them up and told them to just throw it as far as they could? Probably not.Last fall I agreed to help a startup 10U team with their pitching, One of the players was the sister of a girl I was working with. At the first practice the coach asked 'who wants to pitch'? Not exactly the situation I was anticipating. Nine of the the thirteen players raised their hand. I took them three at a time, gave each girl a pile of balls and told them to pitch against a nearby tennis court fence from about 10 ft away. With no target and no instruction they all bowled (with an arm circle of course).
