Heading isn’t the main cause of brain injury in soccer.
Brain injury risk in sport is driven by repeated small-force head impacts, known as sub-concussions, which cause the brain to rotate inside the skull.
Heading the ball is the most obvious example.
But many impacts in soccer occur through head-to-head contact, player collisions, and head-to-ground contact during training and match play.
Focusing only on heading risks overlooking the cumulative exposure to rotational forces that occurs throughout soccer and other contact sports.
Reducing brain injury risk means reducing repeated exposure to these forces over time.
Halos® was designed to do exactly that, reducing rotational force transmission during head impacts by up to 61%.
