New Term, Same Tough Gumshield: Why Durability Matters This Season

As the new school year kicks off and the autumn rugby season gets underway, PE departments and club coaches are once again faced with the same challenge: how to keep players safe on a tight budget.

Whether you’re managing a school full of energetic students or a community club with a growing youth team, the safety equipment you choose needs to go the distance. That’s where durability comes in.

At Game Guard, we understand that investing in a gum shield isn’t just about safety; it’s also about getting real value for money. You need protection that doesn’t give up after a few tackles. That’s why our mouthguards are durable, made with high-quality materials, offer a comfortable fit, and are trusted to carry UKCA and CE certification.

Our gumshields are manufactured to withstand the demands of regular training and match-day action. The boil-and-bite custom-fit design ensures comfort and retention, while the tough, reliable construction means players can rely on them week in and week out. Less hassle for you. Fewer replacements for parents. Better protection for players.

Tried, Tested & Loved – by Young Players

We’re proud to sponsor the Five Valleys Valkyries, a local all-girls rugby team that knows exactly what they want from a rugby mouth guard: comfort, style, and resilience.

Here’s what a few of the players had to say:

Ezzy: “They’re super easy to mould and the instructions are clear, so it didn’t take long at all. I also like that they come in different sizes. Mine fits perfectly, and the flavours are a nice surprise!”

Minnie:“I think the gumshield are amazing. They fit so well that you hardly notice them when you’re playing. And I really like that you can choose your favourite colour, mine matches my boots!”

Amelie:“The gumshields are really strong, they don’t wear down easily like others I’ve had. Plus, I love that you can pick from loads of colours and even flavoured ones, which makes wearing one way more fun.”

It’s feedback like this that reinforces what we’re all about – providing quality oral protection that young players are happy to wear. Whether you're shopping for a kids gum shield, a junior gum shield, or a dependable mouthguard for rugby, we’ve got you covered.

By choosing Game Guard, you’re not just choosing safety, you’re choosing gumshields that hold up under pressure, help avoid frequent replacements, and make life easier for everyone involved. No drama. No fuss. Just reliable protection that lasts the season.
