[quote=Anonymous]Great question. This is a touchy area because there’s nothing wrong with doing both. The issue is doing too much of both within the same day or even the same weekend on no rest. My players that I manage for doubleheader’s will only be allowed a total of 6 innings combined pitching and catching. So if he catches 4 can pitch ONLY 2 or vice versa - however you want to mix it up. Catching a full game and then pitching the next I think is excessive if done as regular practice at the 12u level. In a pinch fine, but generally I think it’s too much stress on the arm. Certainly it’s something I would discuss with the coach. Just remember this - it’s not about what they can do today it’s about what they can potentially do in the future. Protecting a young players arm is priority 1.[/quote]
