My internet connection where Im at is so slow I cant get to the video, but NFHS does have a video of illegal pitches named Double Touch.

You need to be a member of the NFHS Officials Association to view the video.

The example used in the video is a pitcher who brings her hands together, separates them to adjust her hair, and brings them back together to deliver the pitch. The narrator explains it is an illegal pitch "as soon as the pitcher separates her hands after bringing them together without immediately delivering the ball".
