Background:

  • National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) mandates mouthguard use in football to enhance player safety.
  • Compliance with mouthguard regulations is crucial for injury prevention in collegiate athletics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess football officials' attitudes toward NCAA mouthguard rules.
  • To compare perceptions of accountability and enforcement between officials and coaches.
  • To identify barriers to mouthguard rule compliance in collegiate football.

  • Analysis of responses regarding rule compliance, accountability, and penalty enforcement.
  • Main Results:

    • All surveyed groups acknowledged that officials are less accountable for player compliance than coaches, trainers, and players.
    • Officials observed lower compliance rates with NCAA mouthguard regulations compared to coaches.
    • Officials expressed reluctance to enforce NCAA-mandated penalties for non-compliance with mouthguard rules.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a discrepancy in perceived accountability for mouthguard rule compliance among football stakeholders.
    • Officials' reluctance to enforce penalties may hinder effective implementation of NCAA mouthguard regulations.
    • Further strategies are needed to improve mouthguard compliance and ensure player safety in collegiate football.
