I want to help her arm speed, I have her doing plyometrics and weight training. I want to change weight training format to increase arm swing speed. She hits a very hard ball but I feel to push her to the next level this could be very helpful Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

You wanna build speed in the arm swing? Forgo the standard idea of weight training and just wear a very light wrist weight or just a glove. One other cautionary method is increasing your legiment strengths like finger hangs or to the extend of static chin ups.
