Side-arm thrower


Question
My daughter, who is 11, is now taking fast-pitch pitching lessons.  After a day of lessons and another day of pitching, she complained of pain in her shoulder, which I thought was rare for an underhand pitcher.  She usually throws a hundred pitches a day in her at-home workouts.  As a result she has now started to throw side-arm to compensate for the pain.  My question is two-fold.  What steps should she be taking after pitching in practice or a game?  What drills or device can I use to help her throw with the correct motion?

Answer
Ken:  I'm sorry, but I do not have any expertise in the area of softball pitchers.

I did a little research and would suggest a couple of things.

1.  If you google in, softball pitcher shoulder injuries, there is a substantial amount of info to look through, both on mechanics and softball injuries,

2.  This site, www.pitchsoftball.com, has a lot of information, and the ability to email or call him with questions.  He has a section where you can read through questions that have been submitted previously, and his responses.

I read through his site and it has a good feel to it.  You may get the same feeling.  He is a softball pitching instructor in Colorado.

Sorry I can't be of more help.  Other than playing softball after getting out of school, I have no expertise on the pitching end of the game.

Yours in baseball,

Rick
