Boys at Boarding Schools

School can be tough, but if you're in an all-boys boarding school things can get very rough — to your balls.

A previous poll revealed startling results. Virtually all had seen boys hit in the balls during their stay resulting in pain, swelling and vomiting. About one-in-five reported a boy required medical attention for this. The problem seems markedly worse at Catholic affiliated institutions.

The purpose of this poll is to shed more light on this phenomena, in particularly focusing on boys' willingness to seek medical help.

Thank-you for your participation.
