lacrosse






These are a couple pictures of my new helmet, just so you can see what it's like. The top one shows the inside. The red thing is the springy concussion-protector. It sort of cups my head so the helmet doesn't bounce around when I get hit.

The second picture is just what it looks like. The black thing mounted to the face mask is a throat protector. They're regulation on all helmets now. It does just what it says - makes sure I don't get wailed in the throat.

And this is a lovely picture of a pretty nasty bruise I received on Thursday. There are places on your body you just can't cover with padding. Unfortunately, these are also the places I tend most to get hit. :)

Ah! You have one of these again!

I miss reading about your life. I'm so glad. :)
