Paul Copioli's son Gio nearly got his head taken off by a ball that caught him off guard working field reset. Fortunately he has very quick reflexes and snagged the ball just before it hit him. Another volunteer working nearby significantly injured his fingers catching a ball (He may have broken them. They swelled up pretty good. It didn't help that after getting his fingers bent back by the ball he tried to catch the next ball coming in the goal right after it and aggravated the injury). 2013 was really a bad year for volunteer injuries. Those frisbees were brutal!
