I'm in year 2 of ASA with mask, our league started a year early after a girl ate her own foul ball 3 years ago.

I've not really seen it be an issue since.. I think its one of those things "if it prevents one injury.. its worth it". I dont know how much I buy that. My daughter started wearing one before it was required because of her braces.. and now just always will.

I'm not big on nanny stuff to be honest... especially at the varsity level.
