It is very hard to tell if someone is wearing a mouthguard if it is clear, especially in men's Lacrosse where the helmet further obstructs the view. Wearing a mouthguard in a sport like lacrosse is essential not only for protecting the teeth, but also in preventing concussions. If a player is wearing a clear mouthguard the referee is unable to tell if he or she is actually wearing it. Some refs will let you color in the front part of it with a black permanent marker, to more clearly indicate that the player is wearing the required safety equipment.

What is the equipment needed in lacrosse?

In Lacrosse you use a stick, consisting of two parts, the head and the shaft. You also wear protective equipment such as a Helmet, Shoulder Pads, Arm Pads, Gloves, and sometimes rib pads. Rib Pads are not required.In mens there is generally the shoulder pads, arm pads, gloves, the cup, the helmet, and the stick which is either the short stick or the defensive pole.In womens the equipment is basically a stick the length of a mens short stick, optional gloves, and goggles.Both have to wear mouthguards because no one wants to lose teeth, or get a concussion. Both have goalies that wear chest pads and helmets with thigh pads. The shin guards are preferred but are mainly up to the goalie or the coach as well as any other pads.I'm not sure about mens lacrosse but for womens all you need is an approved stick, mouthguard, and eye protection goggles.Men use helmets, gloves, elbow/arm guards/protectors, chest pads, a stick (made up of the shaft and head), a cup, and optionaly rib guards (very useful for midis and attack because you get slap and poke checked a lot).Men's and women's lacrosse require different equipment, since the rules for the sport are different.Men's lacrosse equipment:Lacrosse cleats or an athletic tennis shoeAn athletic supporter and athletic cupChest and shoulder pads (optional)Arm guards (optional)Helmet with full face maskLacrosse stick with headLacrosse ballMouthguardWomen's lacrosse equipment:Lacrosse cleats or an athletic tennis shoeLacrosse gogglesLacrosse stick with headLacrosse ballMouthguardFor Men's Lacrosse: You need lacrosse gloves , arm guards, helmet, shoulder pads, and a lacrosse stickFor Women's Lacrosse:You need a lacrosse stick, goggles, a mouth guard.
