So I guess players love to compete and healthy competition is good for the team
Where did you ever hear that? /s
Lol
Yeah, I’m teaching my 8 yr old to touch her shoulder during warmup drills that way she doesn’t get into the habit of having a straight arm on release. She’s come a long way in a short amount of time for her age. Praying she sticks with it cause the league she plays in always struggles going from coach pitch to player pitch.
helpful video!!
Do you suggest against hello elbow? I see her firing her arm out and not bringing it up. My daughter is learning and she does this out of habit but her teacher is training her to bring her hand up to chest.
Your daughter is being taught correctly. Good luck
Don't do hello elbow - It can cause future injury. She needs to be forearm firing/whip/internal rotation (all diff names for the same thing). I was confused in this video that she was pitching with the correct form in most drills (IR) but the "make it snappy" drill is teaching hello elbow which is not a good drill to do.
Does healthy competition help the whole staff?
Possibly. But a rise slurve in the zone can get you a mound visit in the ER with proper grip. Refined repetition boost control and velocity by 3.8 speed ph. Honestly you can’t go wrong with the leg kick in the can.
I think it might but I’m not sure. The video is unclear on that😂
What kind of question is that?
@@notimeforjokes.3570 A sarcastic one that makes fun of the video you toolbag...
Idk but players love to compete
Jesus Loves you all very much!! God Bless everyone!!
Always follow thru! Release then bring hand straight up to shoulder/ chest. Dont teach this lazy release. Your losing speed with a lazy snap

Today at my game, i was having an off day and the other teams coach (btw this coach is a travel team coach and so are his girls on this team, they are also 2-4 years older than we are so they shouldn’t be in this age group) and i know i wasnt on my best game but i was still trowing strikes and the coach and his team were talking crap about how bad i was doing and the coach goes “she isnt even a real pitcher, i mean look at how bad shes doing” and he practically yelled it too. I feel so embarrassed, humiliated and upset. The years i took to build up that confidence just for his to destroy it. The worst thing is that Ive practiced and played on his travel team before and i practice at where he coaches :/.
Sorry for ranting
He's getting in your head, don't let any of them do you like that! You're younger than them but still pitching to an older team? You go girl keep it up the coach and other team members are just trying to get under your skin! I know it's hard to tune it out get your team get louder than they are and don't give in to their junk! Be proud!
@janicecopeland7264 thank you so much random person! This honestly made me feel alot better, what you said will stick with me for the rest of my life. I will always keep that in mind ❤️
My granddaughter plays up an age group but she's a powerhouse in fast pitch. She plays recreation and travel ball she's only 9. YOU keep up the good work and don't get intimidated. Turn it around and intimate them! You got it!!!
@janicecopeland7264 Thank you!! 😊🙏🏻❤️
@@CB_67 You can do it! Proud of you!❤️
