Or playing basketball, for that matter. Unless you have the polycarbonate sports specs.
I learned this lesson after having my glasses knocked off during a warm up game of basketball( nearly taking my nose with them) and watching them miraculously spin unharmed across the floor amid countless stamping feet.
Cheers, MR

| Well... ::scratches head:: If you mean that you play soccer as a fencing warm-up, then it makes sense... but... but... then wouldn't you have to warm up before going into your warmup? <img src="confused.gif" border="0"> | |

| Good luck Zelda! Yeah, I played about 4 years of soccer with glasses. I think I had that happen to me. Contacts are a gift from heaven, I'm telling you. Anyways, have fun getting back into the ways of fencing!
