That's up to them and the trainer in charge (if you have one) and the coach overlooking the trainer. By the time you get to the college/pro level, you don't have a choice. Looking back at sons 3 years in college, most injuries ocurred because of things that can't be prevented even with stretching and conditioning. An OF dives in to catch the ball and dislocates shoulder, a catcher gets his nail ripped off (first game of the year) on throwing hand, hamstring is pulled sliding in and getting jammed by the base, hitter takes a 90+ mph FB ball on the hand, pitcher gets hit with a pitch back to his shin, these are just normal occurances.

Bob, You should ask the players that question - not the parents of the players. And if you do - I suggest you hire a bodyguard before you pose the question. LOL
