A "cup" (groin cup) which fits into a jockstrap, protects the testicles from getting hit and injured.

Boys are very easy to injure in this area. During contact sports it is a good idea to protect your balls from getting smashed since the pain is incredibly bad and you don't want to be unable to get a girl pregnant later.

Soccer is a sport where there isn't much body contact, and if somehow a ball would hit him, I don't think it would be powerfull enough to do any kind of damage.

Yes, there are protective cups for guys with big penises. Protector-cups are made in different sizes -- boy, youth (teenage), and adult. Adult cups vary in size depending on the manufacturer. Some brands of adult protective cups are larger than other brands. I don't think that there are any uniform product standards for cup-size however. You may find that some of the metal cup-protectors made for martial arts have a larger capacity.
