So my daughter has played Short stop her Softball days since she was 5 and now turning 13.Her hitting Infieding coach and MAIN HEAD COACH doesn't mind if she doesn't wear the mask in the infield and I'm ok with that because Imo it hinders you. Now yes for safety reasons it can save a tooth or a broken nose, but who doesn't mind if there daughter doesn't wear one and who does. I became a Coach this year and we got another new coach and he yelled at my daughter for not having her mask on she proceeded to tell him my dad doesn't mind if I don't wear one and this guy just went a little kookoo and went on and on how dare you not wear it,your parent should be making you wear it,Now I have to coach with this guy and already I think he is a nut. You take care of your daughter I will take care of mind how I want to. But to yell is absurd so I had to tell this gut listen she doesn't wear one end of story that's it
