What's on your mind?

Have any of you heard of this mask or know if it is okay to wear during ASA play?
It is used for fielding.

I like that the visibility seems better, but it doesn't look like it covers the mouth at all
It's better to keep your mouth shut and look like you're stupid......
than to open it and remove all doubt.

It seems like this one would be tough on backhand plays

it reminded me of a scuba mask, and it didnt cover anything below their noses...
Deserve's got nothin' to do with it.

That style of mask is for field hockey or lacrosse. It does not cover the mouth or jaw area, it looks as the nose maybe exposed even. Game face or Defender mask are best for softball and full face coverage. JMO

I have both the Game Face and the Defender. Both are very good. The adult size Game Face is larger than the Defender and fits me better. The child size Defender is very tiny. Anyone over 8 YO probably needs the adult Defender. The difference is the Game Face has a strap over the top of the head, which the Defender does not. Also, there are pads on the GameFace that are removable and washable. They don't come off on the Defender.

You could possibly order one of each and see which one DD prefers and then send the other one back.
