Common Thowing Mechanical Problems

So Coaches: With so many kids entering T-Ball and the watered down coaching available for these little ones many of them are not taught how to throw a baseball and they develop some very nasty little habits. What some things you do to correct the faulty mechanics of your players?

Examples:

Kid Cutter, always has a counter clockwise rotation to his ball. (Throws Door Knob Sliders at age 8

but does know he is doing it.)

Side arm Scott: Looks like a helicopter preparing for take off.

The Cork Screw kid, always throwing screw balls. An eager beaver tried early to fix Kid Cutter and all he did was change the direction of the rotation.
