My 8th grader has received a throwing program to get ready for the season. 3 weeks in, and we are throwing 30-135 feet building to 30-165 feet this week.
By the last week, he is to be throwing 220 feet. That seems pretty far for an 8th grader, and watching him throw 135 feet makes me wonder how we will get to 220 feet.
My question, should an 8th grader be able to throw 220 feet after a 6 week program or is there a chance I have received the wrong program. I know nothing about baseball.
Thanks
