No it only means they are better than you at throwing the ball fast. I am not sure how you construed my post to mean that all the attention is being put on speed alone. Where my DD takes lessons accuracy is emphasized during lessons a lot more than speed. It just so happens that speed is a lot easier to measure and track over time.The issue, I believe, is that someone throwing harder than you doesn’t automatically mean that they are better than you at the skill (pitching). Many girls can throw hard but might not be as effective as another pitcher who doesn‘t throw as hard. So putting all of the attention on speed alone isn’t being fully transparent as a PC. It’s a selling point - and a good one because so many people obviously buy into it.
