Important Hockey Helmet Information:

It was recently brought to the attention of Riverview Minor Hockey that while most people are not aware, Hockey Helmets have an expiry date which is clearly stated on one of the stickers located on the back of the helmet. Be sure to check this sticker and replace the helmet if necessary as serious head injuries may occur.Please take the time to check, it only takes a second to look, just as it only takes a second for a life to be drastically changed forever. This goes for hockey players, coaches, officials and anyone else who is on the ice. In a nutshell helmets should be warn at all times when on the ice, kept in good repair and checked periodically. Please see note below from an ER doctor who recently witnessed 2 seperate incidents involving out of date helmets.

"Good Morning. I wear several hats, one is a hockey dad, one is an ER doctor. In the last two weeks I have seen in the ER, 2 kids who suffered a brain injury while on the ice. Both kids were wearing helmets that were out of date. One was an official. Both sets of parents were greatly surprised to learn that helmets are like tomatoes and have an expiration date, clearly stated on on of the two stickers placed before sale on each helmet sold in the past 8 years. Once the date is passed, these helmets are no longer certified to provide any form of protection to kids' skulls or their contents."
