CSA-Certified Helmets
Hockey helmets are essential for helping to protect hockey players of all ages from serious head injuries, but not all helmets are created equally. Trusted manufacturers work with third-party testing and certification organizations like CSA Group to rigorously test helmets for safety, durability, and effectiveness. However some counterfeit helmets have recently been discovered for public sale using forgeries of the CSA label. These helmets have not undergone proper safety standard teesting and pose a potential risk to player safety. 

CSA Group has set up a dedicated webpage with resources and materials to help players and their guardians in choosing a helmet.
