[quote=Anonymous]I had to switch my 9year old daughter's shoe type for this very reason. The lightweight shoes have a very thin uppers and offer no protection (some cleats are as thin as socks and your are more likely to suffer an injury because of this.) My daughter was stepped on a lot by clumsy/ younger players or bullish players who just run through players and step on their feet. We found another cleat with thicker upper padding and it helped a lot. She has been nicked in the ankle bone a lot as she is a dribbler/ ball handler. She has learned to dribble less around some players as a result; and the coaches never seem to care (and these instances are hard to call fouls on). [/quote]
