I got the ok from the doc to play field hockey. forgot to ask should i wear helmet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good idea: In some sports helmets are not currently mandatory unfortunately with the increasing concussion problem i believe that sports such as hockey, lacrosse and soccer should require them to prevent head injuries.
