12U Dd has always left her helmet on - just what she prefers - and she is a beast. Today alone she made 4 foul pop up catches, several throwndowns and an out at home all with her helmet on. We were playing the top 3 teams on our area. However this weekend one of her coaches decided that "it was time she learns to take it off". I am not happy! I think I am going to print out this entire thread and take it to him!
