They don't. When I was younger I played a tournament in Phoenix and the only other teams that had neckguards were the other Canadian teams. It's bizarre.
Grown men I can understand, but children not wearing them is insane.
I do think we'll see a day where neck guards and full cages are mandatory. That might not be a bad thing either.
