[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the young pitchers aren’t you worried about their shoulders in the long term?? This seems so incredibly short sighted. [/quote] [b]Not with softball.[/b] And even with baseball, the conventional thinking is changing to: more throwing, less pitching. So you can still work on the mechanics of the throw, but at less intensity. [/quote] Pitcher's mom here, and the thoughts on this are changing slowly. I'd think learning proper mechanics is important here to keep this from being an issue, hence the lessons. We switched our kid from "hello elbow" pitching (learned at a clinic) to "internal rotation" pitching partially because it gets better results but partially for arm care purposes. That took a coach and a ton of work.[/quote]
