It protects the eyes from sun glare. It is usually a wax (similar to shoe polish) but can also be decals (like those used in face painting).

It is intended to reduce sun glare by drawing the light!
It is sort of out-of-date with all the sunglasses and visors that athletes wear these days!

it keeps the sun from shining in their eyes. the black kinda 'repeals' the sun so they don't have to squint to see. :]
