Banach-Steinhaus theorem (Theorem)

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $Y$ a normed space. If a family $\mathcal{F}\subset \mathscr{B}(X,Y)$ of bounded operators from $X$ to $Y$ satisfies $$\sup\{\|T(x)\|: T\in \mathcal{F}\}<\infty$$ for each $x\in X$ then $$\sup\{\|T\|: T\in \mathcal{F}\}<\infty,$$ i.e. $\mathcal{F}$ is a bounded subset of $\mathscr{B}(X,Y)$ with the usual operator norm. In other words, there exists a constant $c$ such that for all $x\in X$ and $T\in \mathcal{F}$ $$\|Tx\|\leq c\|x\|.$$
