The injury you got has nothing to do with your age. It could happen anytime. I was 23 when I had a tooth knocked out at basketball training and only 17 when I had my check split open in a collision with a teammate in a game. (Yes, all my major injuries were caused by teammates.)
The 'funny' thing about the second injury was that it was me who had drilled into this younger (and taller) teammate the importance of keeping his elbow up when pivoting towards the ring to stop shorter players from stripping the ball from him. I knew what he was about to do and was trying to get good body position on him to stop him pivoting but was a bit slow on my feet that day.
