NO throw required for interference. But look at the entire situation.
1. What level of ball is this.
2. Did the catcher have a legitimate shot had she thrown the ball and had the catcher demonstrated in warmups and or the game she could even make a throw.
3. Did the batter actually interfere? as stated before did she bobble the ball have problems getting the ball out of the glove ect.
This call can only be made by the umpire at the game not on a message board, every situation will have it's own unique characteristics and should be judged as such. I can see very little chance of having interference on a batter in 10u if the catcher cannot throw the ball back to the pitcher, or the runner is 5 foot from the base when the supposed interference takes place.
