My daughter is about to turn 10, and started her journey as a 9 year old exactly one year ago.
Just looked at GameChanger and she's thrown 1,000 pitches in tournaments from last Fall until now. I estimate about 20,000 pitches total (400 per week). Yes, we take several weeks off in the winter and slow down a tad in the heat of the summer.
We only pitch fastball and change. But we work hard on location.
She does well. Has a blast. Loves the game. Thinking back on the year, we both loved it. Loved playing catch, working together, going to lessons, and especially game time.
Take the plunge, I think you might look back with fondness as well.
