An athletic cup is designed to provide impact protection for the groin during sports and other physical activities. No protective equipment can eliminate the risk of injury, so proper fit, positioning, and use are important.

Compression shorts can provide support, but they don't provide the same impact protection as an athletic cup. For sports where groin protection is appropriate or required, a cup and properly designed support system work together.

The cup provides the protection; the support system helps keep it properly positioned. For active sports, using a compatible Diamond MMA support system helps minimize shifting during movement.

Diamond MMA protection can be used across a wide range of sports and activities, including baseball, hockey, football, lacrosse, MMA, martial arts, soccer, rugby, BJJ, motocross, and more. The appropriate level of protection depends on the activity and its rules.

Use the Diamond MMA Size & Fit Guide to select the appropriate cup and support size. Proper sizing is important for coverage, comfort, and stability.

The cup should sit securely against the body and adequately cover the groin without creating excessive pressure or discomfort. Your support system should hold the cup securely in place during movement.

Movement can occur when the cup or support system is incorrectly sized, improperly positioned, or not providing enough support. A properly fitted Diamond MMA system is designed to minimize shifting.
