What leagues require the HECC certification for player and goaltender helmets?
Any player playing in a USA Hockey sanctioned event or league up to the age of 21 (Mites through Juniors) or any player playing in a high school event played under the Federation of High School playing rules must wear a HECC certified helmet and a HECC certified facemask, or a HECC certified goaltender helmet and facemask while participating in that event or league. Players participating in a NCAA sanctioned event must wear a HECC certified facemask with a hockey helmet or a HECC certified goaltender helmet and facemask. Players participating in other leagues should review the rule book for their particular league to determine whether HECC certified helmets are required. • Where can I find out if my helmet is HECC certified? Answer: The HECC web site (www.HECC.net) contains a section entitled “Current Listings of Certified Products” where all currently HECC certified products are provided. If the helmet does not appear in this section it is not currently HECC certified and cannot be us
