Some do, but most do not. While a cup is certainly a prudent precaution for professional players, the chances of getting kicked in the gonads are rare, and even so, would carry a severe penalty. Many soccer players do not wear a cup for the same reason that some police officers choose not to wear a bulletproof vest - comfort, flexibility, and mobility are all restricted.
If they have big junk
I think that most Basketball players just wear a regular kind of a jockstrap without a cup. However, some high school basketball players wear a cup because they are concerned about getting hit in their sensitive area. When I played basketball in my teens, a couple of the guys on our team awlays wore a cup.
All of the male ones.
Or...No, only the smart ones.[EDIT by NOTUS.zip: That's a good question, I would love to see for myself!]
They are suppose to but only 60% do they say its uncomfortable and there is only a small chance they r gonna get hit down there
They should, and the catcher normally does. It's usually a safety rule for catchers in High School and College Sports.
A uniform: Cleats, Socks, Jersey, pants, sliding shorts, belt, hat or helmet, and a cup (optional)

Baseball players all wear a cup. Their bulge is misleading.
Yes, either with a cup for sports with direct contact, or just for support when running or playing non-contact sports.
Yes, definitely. lots of ice hockey goalies wear two cups. A regular cup jock and then a special goalie cup over top of that. Usually the size and speed of the puck or ball being shot at the net determines wether a goalie would need to wear a goalie cup. Lacrosse and ice hockey goalies wear cups but soccer goalies generally dont wear a cup
No, what is used is called a "cup" ... a rather solid piece of hard plastic that helps to protect the male genitals. I haven't the foggiest idea what female baseball players wear for protection.
NFL Players wear cups. As a former NFL player, I got out of the league in 2007 and now play Arena ball, you would be crazy not to wear a cup. There are some teams that don't (I think the Eagles for the most part don't) but 90% of other players wear cups.
Yes we do wear cups
Yes you should. A hard cup should be worn during baseball to prevent injury.
No, girls do not need to wear a cup when catching baseball.
They wear compression shorts (spandex) with pockets in them so the can put their cup in it
Both could wear jocks, however the cup is more complex: Bull Riders: No. The cup would not help, and due to the angle that the bull would hit the cup, it could be more painful. Rodeo Clowns: Yes, many to wear cups. Bull riders would only get hurt in their sensitive area after they are thrown from the bull and if one of the bull's hoofs would come right down on their sensitive area. This is very unlikely. However, it is probably something that bull riders fear a lot.
