This British Standard specifies the requirements for the materials, construction, markings and information to be supplied for head and neck protectors to be worn by cricketers in adult and junior cricket.

NOTE 1 It is important to stress that this British Standard does not cover specific testing against a women’s size ball.

NOTE 2 This British Standard does not consider head protectors for use in kwik cricket, incrediball, street cricket, etc. or any other variant of the game.

NOTE 3 Head protectors for cricketers can also be worn by close fielders and wicket-keepers. However, the testing protocol is designed for protection against batting related ball impacts, rather than those encountered in these fielding positions.

This British Standard specifies the methods to assess the impact attenuation properties during a drop test of the helmet and the protection provided against a ball or faceguard contacting a specified no contact zone of the face during a projectile test.
