I’ve only actually …
I’ve only actually seen a few professional players play with shinguards in training. Most people hate wearing them. Shinguards were added to FIFA required in the 80s when AIDs became common. Shinguards prevent some leg cuts, so there are less chance of spreading the disease. Leg breaks would just go straight through the shinguards.

@stevietrick or …
@stevietrick or he’s not American. There is no actual FIFA rule for shinguards except that they must be worn. Many youth leagues particularly in the USA have made silly regulations on shinguards. The real reason is just to keep over worrying mothers ok with their kids playing. The truth is a shin guard will not prevent a leg break. The shin guard will break with you leg if it’s that hard. A shin guard will only make kicks hurt a little less and prevent some cuts.

I can’t find shin guards big enough. They are all too short and my ankle is too big for the ankle protection. Also they aren’t wide enough to go far enough around my calf, :'(
