I remember playing kickball and getting one of those suckers in the face. Same with baseball, soccer, later on rugby and football. It's the nature of being a kid. Thankfully, before you hit 18 90% of your injuries heal completely. After 18, 90% of your injuries don't heal completely. Play rough, play hard, get into scraps. Be a kid and enjoy it... I sure do miss it.

Just don't sue the school when your kid gets hurt.
They are liable.

I totally understand where the schools are coming from. I just don't agree, but when you, as a school, have to deal with bs parents who wrap their kids in cotton balls and want them to be rewarded for 'effort', then this is what you get.
