Just had that happen a couple of weeks ago at a scrimmage...DD was catching, and on the 2nd batter, dropped her helmet on a wild pitch and tripped over it. She fell and broke her fall with her hands. You could see her non-gloved hand hit the ground and you could tell it really hurt. Of course, my first thought was, "Oh no, we have our first tournament next weekend!" She sat out the first two innings, couldn't handle the backup catcher having so many passed balls, and asked to go back in. She ended up perfectly fine! The other parents were amazed that my wife and I just sat calmly in our chairs when she went down for the count...we aren't those parents that have to run on to the field every time their kid gets hurt!
