Best way to prevent them from breaking is to apply Ben Gay to the inside of the cup.

There are a number of different styles. A bikers cup is great for kicking styles but not so good for rolling.
What is your style?

I had used my bulletproof vest in sparring. It works pretty good. Someone in Taiwan invented the bulletproof underwear. I believe it works better than the groin cup.

From my experience you are more likely to be kicked in the groin by kids or people who are bit shorter than you.
The only cup I ever seen actually broken was in American football.
Particularly when sparring or going hard each person has padding/guards on the shin and foot. This works as protection both ways. You should be able to determine whether this is your situation or not.
I do not think you have a great deal to worry about. Just go into it it informed and prepared. ***That is very different from going in scared.

I used to hold pads for a guy that was ex pro, now in his 50s. I would sometimes get serious bruising on my ribs...though the 5 inch pad.

So

Hard.

It is really not as bad as you are making it out to be. It is not going to be like a baseball bat swing. More often a tap. Cup up and you will be fine.
