I get hit in the face Everytime I go in for a layup?

I get it they're trying to block me but the ball is high up and instead of them jumping to hit the ball they would just throw their arms out and hit me in my face hard and it's annoying. Like how am I supposed to finish a layup up Everytime if someone is fouling me like that. I tried other ways but they would just pull my arm down or literally pull my neck frimt he back. What can I do to protect my face more

    That is the game. To keep the other team from scoring points. When I was playing I was taught to not go for the ball on defense unless it was a sure block, but to hinder the person making the shot. Such as put your hand in front of his face so he can’t see the basket.
