First, to the OP: Good for your daughter for wanting to contribute to her league after playing there. That's how I got started. Hopefully she goes on to a fine career.
Now, on to business:

[1] What about a catcher's CP? You would get what you paid for.
[2] Steve has explained why they work for catchers.
[3] Now, when it comes to umpire CPs, those hard plastic plates around the shoulders, collar bones, and chest turn "a little pain" into "no pain."
[4] My K1 works fine for all divisions of LL baseball/softball, from majors through big league (18-year-olds) as well.
[5] You will probably think Steve's reply was flaming. I would say it was honest and straightforward.
