I agree and the REASONING behind it is that if you are in great football position, it is virtually impossible to take a shot there.
I remember when we first were able to NOT wear a cup(HS), and it was the greatest feeling because they are uncomfortable.
I've been away from little kid programs, but my guess is that they are stiil forced to wear them.
I played 4 years of HS and 4 years of college ball and never took a single hit. not once.
