I bruised my nose and now I am not sure if I should participate in my softball practice tomorrow.

It doesn’t really looked bruised anymore but still hurts like a bruise.
I was just thinking about the possibility of putting myself in danger of having it happen again.

I’m really big on running, but obviously I wouldn’t want to drain myself before game time. Any suggestions? Thanks

at the 1st practice i catched almost every ball but today i couldnt catch any and i think its because it was thrown a little harder. the 1st practice i was warming up with one of the girls but shes not that good so she didnt throw hard but today i was warming up with the coach because there was an uneven number of girls and i didnt have a partner.
i think i couldnt catch because im scared of getting hit by the ball. mostly in the face, but the ball is never thrown at my face. so it has to be the way im catching it.
my friends were saying its because my glove is facing downward when i catch so the ball falls out or sometimes i close the glove before the ball gets to the inside
what should i do?
let it hit me? today it hit me in the shin and there was a big bump there for a while but when i got hit, it didnt affect me at all. another hit my wrist, last week the girl threw it and it hit me in the foot, last year i was playing by myself i threw it up in the air i looked down because i thought i was going to rip over a soccer ball, i looked back up and it hit me in the eye (that one killed!) but when it hits me i dont really care but when the ball is coming i get scared, its weird, so it has to be the way im catching it…

I don’t know what to expect. What types of things will we probably be doing? I play 14U. We can’t wear shorts, so would yoga pants be okay to wear? What else should I wear? Should I wear my sliding shorts under my pants? I have sliding knee pads too…should I wear them under or over my pants, or not at all? Please help!! (ASAP)
