You are concerned for their safety but excited to see them participate. Schools and clubs will want to ensure their safety while they are participating and for this reason you will have to purchase a mouth guard and this is where it can turn into a small mind field for parents.  

There are two options with mouth guards Boil and Bite or a custom fit Mouth Guard.

The Second is a custom fit Mouth Guard commonly fitted by a dentist. We have put together a small list of the benefits of you getting your child a custom fit Mouth Guard.
