Thank God he wore a neck guard. That sport is getting out of hand. It was always a bit rough but players raising their blades is terrible. Sometimes it’s just a natural reflexive reaction to defend yourself with your legs but at age 11 it’s not natural to have excess discipline or learn to just take the hit you see coming at you.

My boys both wore them.

They should be mandatory, because some parents just don’t know better.

Dad sounds overly invested in having his kid keep playing.
