[quote=Anonymous]I think the pitching types and speeds are being overblown here by some. Will you see 80mph at 13? Yes, of course, but is that typical or widespread for the average travel league? No, I don’t think so. Teams may have one guy who can throw that. I was just watching a metro-level 14u game and the fastest pitch I saw was 75mph. Most were high 60s and low 70s, with a couple of 50-somethings. And kids probably will have a fastball, change up, and curve that can be thrown reliably. The curve can get a lot of kids out, regardless of their age. Now admittedly, all this goes out the window if you’re talking about super elite national or regional travel teams but for your standard NVTBL teams, I would guess not. I don’t think OP’s kid will be behind out by not playing 10u baseball. Be careful of overuse, especially as your kid goes through puberty. [/quote]
