Question

Why is the kid wearing glasses on the court? According to all the competitions that I referee in, players have to wear either contacts, or approved sports goggles. This prevents cases like this happening.

I also wear glasses, and have been wearing sports goggles for many years. They are cheap, and far superior to wearing glasses on the court, which can be dangerous to everybody. (Just imagine getting hit smack bang in the face with a basketball with "normal" glasses on - big problems!).
