A protective face mask with a facial covering sheet is formed of an impact-resistant transparent sheet to match the contour of a face. The mask has mirror image eye openings that are open-sided, a mouth opening and an array of ventilation openings adjacent to the bottom of the nose of the wearer. A forehead pad and a pair of cheek pads are adhered to the inner surface of the mask to absorb impact. A set of elastic straps are provided to securely hold the mask onto the head of the wearer.
