[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would it necessarily be different for "guys?" Why not just preferred mouthguard?[/quote]

As mom who played in HS, the whistle blows when a check goes in your bubble-the imaginary space around your head, but you could still get a check or an elbow on the chin during face-offs of ground balls.  The mouthguard protects your teeth from injury. For boys, whose heads are covered and have a cage in front of their faces, and who check like they are playing football, they player often falls backwards and hits their head. The mouthguard is like "packing peanuts" so brains will slosh around less.

I didn't write the question, and I am all for asking "what about the girls" because it should be "lacrosse" or "girl's lacrosse", but boys need mouthguards for different reasons than our daughter's do.

I wrote the recent question about "how cheap can I go" on my son's mouthguard. [/quote]

So guys have better head protection and don't need as much from a mouthguard as the young women do?

I did not know that. Thanks.[/quote]
