New Australian brain-bank findings identified CTE in 31 of 51 donated rugby league brains, including a 20-year-old. Why brain protection must start young.

Already wear a rugby scrum cap? Learn the difference between conventional scrum caps and brain protection, and what to look for when choosing rugby headgear.

Hard ground can make a head-to-ground impact more severe because the surface has less capacity to absorb the impact. From drought-hardened pitches and frozen grass to hardwood courts and ice, understanding surface hardness means understanding what happens to the brain when a player falls; and how head-worn brain protection can reduce the forces transmitted during impact.

Is flag football safe? Research shows far fewer head impacts than tackle football, but concussion and sub-concussive impacts can still occur. Understand the science and how brain protection can help.

How to compare rugby headguards using seven essential checks: brain protection, rotational-force reduction, independent testing, comfort, hearing, vision, secure fit and product lifespan.

Children should wear brain protection as soon as they start sport where head impacts can occur. Learn why sub-concussions, rotational force and lifetime exposure matter.

What is the best football headguard for kids? This guide explores how parents can identify children's head protection that protects the brain.

What is the best rugby headguard for kids? Learn how scrum caps, rugby headguards and brain protection differ, and what parents should compare.

CTE risk in sport is not only about diagnosed concussion. Learn how repeated sub-concussions and rotational forces affect the brain, why youth exposure matters, and how Rezon Halos® reduces risk of CTE.

Discover the best head protection for Gaelic football. Learn why Rezon Halos® focuses on reducing the transmission of rotational forces in head impacts.

Rugby has major physical, social and psychological benefits. But neuroscience is increasingly clear that repeated head impacts, rotational forces and sub-concussive events need to be taken seriously, especially in children. This article explains what the evidence says, why traditional scrum caps are not designed to protect the brain, and how Rezon Halos® Rugby Headguard is designed for a different category of protection.
