In 10U and 12U, I expect to get hit a few times.
Wait till you get a JV F2 who can't catch a walkball pitcher. That's where I took my first cupshot. By the end of the game, I was dancing on almost every pitch because I was getting hit about twice an inning. The mask, both shin guards, the left plate shoe, and the cup all earned their keep as well that night. I never got it on the chest protector.
