Striking Out Injuries in Youth Baseball 2006

Our annual clinic was combined this year with Ripken Baseball bringing the Ripken baseball experience with hitting and pitching together with the safety aspects on youth pitching and conditioning for the young player.

Dr. Joe Chandler presented the stats from previous years Little League World Series, and the need to reduce the number of pitches per game, and the proper age for throwing curve balls and sliders to reduce the increasing number of injuries each year.

Mark Wentworth, ATC and Lloyd Van Pamelen, P.T. presented strengthening and conditioning exercises and the need for proper mechanics for the young pitcher.
