So did they do it for boys (baseball) too?
They probably should. Was speaking with a surgeon who specialized in facial injuries, his DD was on the 10u rec team i was coaching. And he mentioned to me that over last 10 to 15 years, he'd seen a sharp drop off in cases involving facial injuries from softball. He said, "we just don't get them anymore". But, there was no drop off in baseball related facial injuries. He never understood why, until his DD came out for rec softball, and he saw the girls wearing face masks for the first time.
