- I must advise all that it is very important to have adequate supervision
- when playing beep ball. I was running the games at a blind picnic
- locally a few years ago and was standing to the right of the batter,
- along with a few who were legally blind. As the batter swung, the young
- adult closest to me stepped forward after the ball was hit, excited
- about being next at bat. But the batter took a full circular swing with
- both bat and body, and the bat caught this person smack in the face,
- across the nose, and did it bleed. We would have him calmed down long
- enough for the bleeding to ease when he would get excited again and
- start it up again. He had no further problems but it ruined my day and
- I have never supervised that game again. The prime problem was too few
- sighted trying to do too much. Learn from my mistake. TTYL
