Wikipedia definition
2. Little League elbow​Little League elbow is a condition that is caused by repetitive throwing motions, especially in children who play sports that involve an overhand throw. The name of the condition is derived from the game of baseball; it is most often seen in young pitchers under the age of sixteen. The pitching motion causes a valgus stress to be placed on the elbow joint which can cause damage to the structures of the elbow, resulting in an avulsion of the medial epicondylar apophysis (growth plate).
