Unfortunately, a lot of kids careers are cut short too, with injuries later on that were created when they were younger by being pitched too much, usually the coaches fault or the parents fault. The kid pays the price.

I had 3 daughters on the All-Star team, all at once. Both years they made it to the furthest point you could go. (I think Regionals for that age, 11 and 12 year olds,) They had a good team, but the thing that helped them the most is they had an 11 year old girl throwing around 70 underhand. She basically pitched no hitter after no hitter, or maybe the other team would get luck and get a hit or 2. By the time high school came around she already started having shoulder injuries, the parents were banking on her getting a scholarship which she didnt get, so they paid out of pocket for her to go to UCONN which she almost never played and was injured the whole time. Most likely from being pitched everyday possible from ages 10-15.
