The competitive nature of contact sports starts early in an athlete's life. Dedication, effort and personal recognition drive and mold the participant's attitude towards 'giving it their all' years prior to their maturation and full physical development.
DO NOT let your child play ANY contact sport without
The BRAIN-PAD's patented impact reducing design !
Studies have found large numbers of participants in youth football, ice hockey and soccer have irreversible damage to the crucial jaw joint complex from impact!
The unprotected TMJ area has delicate processes that regulate many day to day functions including: Balance, coordination, speech, hearing, problem solving, higher reasoning skills, memory and voluntary muscle control.
This impact energy continues through the TMJ and terminates in the underside of the Brain causing disruption and damage in the most important organ of the body - The Brain!
DO NOT let your child use an UPPER ONLY mouthpiece.
These out-dated teeth protectors, have never had any safety standards in place and can increase the likelyhood your child will be injured. Upper only mouthpieces remove the teeth's natural protective ability to "interdigitate" or interlock at impact. The smooth, wet, underside of the upper only mouthpiece provides a frictionless surface that the lower teeth and jaw slide on until the lower jaw bone slams into the unprotected jaw joint/TMJ complex, deliverin damaging energy into the athlete's developing Brain.
This 8 yr. old running back ran circles around his opponents and was hailed as an obvious up and coming NFL cannidate. He wore all the league-required safety equipment. In only his 3rd year of playing, he was forced to quit due to cranial X-rays showing serious fracturing of the TMJ sockets at the age of 8 yrs.old ! He never played again. Look and the impact marks on his helmet!
Over time or in one crushing blow, a young athlete's entire quality of life is changed forever.
Some symptoms of injury are obvious. Some are not.
DO NOT take a chance with your young athlete's FUTURE !
Teach them to be competitve. Teach them to play hard.
Give them the BEST PROTECTION available -
