When the guard is in place by inserting the scrotum through the opening, the opening is firmly and gently clamped to grip the genitals by means of hook and loop fastening strips providing an infinitely adjustable fit. A series of elastic gatherers or pleats formed along an edge portion of the opening cooperate with the hook and loop fastening strips to improve retention of the guard in the protective position.
