[quote=Cruzado][quote=C3PO]My 14 year old son has had what seems to me an insane amount of injuries during soccer over the past year. He has broken a bone, got a concussion, fractured a growth plate, and had some horrible bruises. Is this just what soccer is? Or is something wrong? My sport growing up was baseball, so I don't really know.[/quote] Sorry to hear that. I am curious - how long has he been playing soccer, and what kind of team is he playing for (high school? travel club? rec?). I suppose a broken bone and a concussion are incidents of bad luck (I broke my wrist playing football in high school; and I don't think folks were as tuned-in to the issue of concussions back then, I may have had one of those as well). The fractured growth plate thing I am not familiar with. Bruises do seem to come with the game. My oldest soccer playing kid is 15 and has had the bruises but that's about it. I'm curious what other people's experience has been.[/quote]
