Anyhoo, just want to inform myself for the parent (give some suggestions)...are little plastic sports glasses out there for kids/cost?

Thanks

As far as I know the Irfu have banned all types of glasses including safety/sports eyewear. They have strict guidelines relating to material used in clothing to exclude armour as opposed to padding and sports glasses fall foul of this.
Only options is contacts. I know it's **** but that's the rules.
