Sadly, playing softball has come to an end for DD.

Wow. If you don't mind me asking, what was her helmet of choice?

FWIW, considering the serious lack of research on concussions and long term effects, the decision to be safer is a solid one IMO. As a coach and a dad, I will always err on the side of caution when it comes to head injuries (to the point of forbidding DS to play full contact football, and requiring all of my infielders to wear fielding masks).

Again, best wishes for your DD's speedy recovery.

The first two concussions were with a Worth helmet. The last two were with the Rawlings Blackout helmet. She was on a Worth-sponsored team, thus the Worth/Rawlings products.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery and you are certainly doing the right thing, whether a softball career is long or short the best you can hope for is after its over you can truly say you've given it you all, and there is no doubt she can say that!

Thanks for the info. Time to do some helmet research for me.
