The GAA would like to remind all players at
all levels in all Hurling Games and Hurling Practice Sessions it is mandatory for, and the responsibility of
each individual player to wear a helmet with a facial guard that meets the standards set out in IS:355
or other replacement standard as determined by the National Safety Authority of Ireland
(NSAI).
All players are advised that in the event of a head injury occurring, if the helmet being worn
does not meet the standard or is modified or altered from the original manufactured state,
they are not covered under the terms of the GAA Player Injury Fund.
