My DD attended a camp this past weekend and one of the speakers was Rachele Fico. She talked about her experiences pitching at LSU and talked a little about high school, etc. I'm sure at some point she did more than pitch and I wondered at what point did she begin to make her focus just pitching?
Currently, my DD pitches, plays first, and plays RF. We are always trying to get more time in to help her game. Most of the time goes into pitching, lately we have been spending more time working on her running mechanics and speed, next her swing, then fielding. That is a lot of stuff to work on.
At some point I expect that list to narrow, but she is only 12 so who knows as time goes on how she will develop. For those of you with older daughters, how did this fall into place for your DD? If she turned her focus more to the field or to pitching was it her decision, a coaches decision, or the parents decision?
Just curious to see how this played out over time for others and I look forward to hearing your stories.
