Open your helmet to its largest setting and position on the head so that the
rim is one finger width above the eyebrow.
Begin to downsize the helmet until a snug fit is achieved. Secure the helmet
adjustment.

and HECC approved helmets will have a sticker indicating their approval.

NECK PROTECTION
The neck protector should be snug but not uncomfortably tight. It should completely
cover the throat, and with the bib style,
the upper chest area. Measure the player's neck and match this size to the sizing
chart. ( Junior - Senior 11 "to 14" 14" to 18")
Neck protectors are designed to protect the throat area from lacerations and
cuts - they are not designed to protect against spinal injuries.
SHOULDER PADS
Measure the player's chest just below the arm pits. Refer to the sizing chart
to determine the corresponding shoulder
pads size. A player should have good range of motion while wearing shoulder
pads.
To test range of motion, lift arms above shoulder height - ensure the pads do
not dig onto the neck.
