[quote=Anonymous]DS is a travel U10 player. Most of his games are played on artificial turf fields. He plays goalie about 50% of the time. He loves soccer and we expect he will continue to play for many years. Recently I visited with a friend who brought up the link between artificial turf and cancer. I recalled hearing/reading about it a few years ago but that was before DS became serious about soccer. I thought today's turf fields were safer. She said they aren't. I did a little research and found mixed opinions. I like the turf because games rarely get rained out but now she has me worried. She keeps sending me scary info. I definitely don't want DS to give up soccer and as a parent I don't get to choose the fields his club/league plays on. Does anyone worry about this? Are new fields safer?[/quote]
