Helmet Safety

Athletics Helmets

The Athlete's helmet should fit properly and be:

• • Well maintained
• • Age appropriate
• • Worn consistently and correctly  
• • Appropriately certified for use
•    

While there is no concussion-proof helmet, a helmet can help protect your child or teen from a serious brain or head injury. Even with a helmet, it is important for your child or teen to avoid hits to the head.
