Wonder how that is across the nation?2) The softball is too big for smaller girls' hands, so they push the ball. That is why Nor Cal switched from the 11" to 10" ball for 8u about 8 years ago, and So Cal has used the 10" ball in 8u for a long time.
This is a conundrum people encounter. Difference of opinion on mechanics. Since you followed through with the Wasserman feedback...I took my DD to see Austin Wasserman just before she turned 9 because a couple of coaches were worried, she would hurt her arm because she threw so hard, and it wasn't the way they had been taught to teach throwing.
Can you please share the difference between what the coaches taught and what your daughter was doing that Wasserman said was correct.
I wanted confirmation from an expert she was throwing correctly, and Austin said she was throwing 99 percent right.
