Interesting topic, my 13DD catches and it brings her to tears when the coach pulls her from her spot. She has been catching full time now for 4 years (year round) and never complains about the 100+ temp or any other conditions. The problem I have is that I have to be on her all weekend about fluids and food, She hates eating before, during or in between games and as a parent it concerns me. Shes just hard headed and maintains that she is fine.
I have to admit, I enjoy watching her behind the plate, where it seems as if its her 2nd home (pardon the pun) as opposed to somewhere else on or off the field. And when shes on... shes on! But It does trouble me knowing that this can't be good for her body.
