My son has been the primary catcher pretty much for every team he's been on since 2010. As such, he throws a LOT. Given he also has zero interest in pitching (he can play most other positions) and the only coaches that wanted him to pitch (very much so) were LL or LL AS coaches who knew very little about coaching and had 1-2 pitchers who they would throw as much as allowed, he held his ground with my support. Only one coach resented it, but we told him before the season started that he was not interested in pitching and he agreed to it. That's it, only been an issue that one time.
