1、Designation: F3137 15Standard Specification forHeadgear Used in Womens Lacrosse (excludingGoalkeepers)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F3137; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revi
2、sion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification defines performance requirements forheadgear to be used by field players participating in the sportof womens
3、 lacrosse. The technical requirements in this speci-fication do not address the administrative requirements oflacrosse governing bodies, so it should not be assumed that anyheadgear satisfying this specification will be acceptable for usein sanctioned lacrosse events.1.2 The purpose of this specific
4、ation is to provide reliableand repeatable test methods for the evaluation of protectiveheadgear for womens adult and youth lacrosse training andplay. When designated optional equipment by lacrosse govern-ing bodies, it is important that it not increase the risk of injuryto players who choose not to
5、 wear it. Impacts from stick, ball,other player, ground, or other objects may be decreased inseverity by use of this headgear. However, the relationshipbetween impact and injury is not fully understood.1.3 No headgear can provide protection against all impacts,foreseeable or not. This specification
6、does not address thepotential for injury from any type of impact.1.4 All testing and requirements of this specification shallbe in accordance with Test Methods F1446 and SpecificationF3077, except where noted in this specification. If there is aconflict between this standard and Test Methods F1446 a
7、ndSpecification F3077, this standard shall control.1.5 Partial compliance with this standard is prohibited.1.6 The values stated in SI (International System of Units)units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given inparentheses are for information only. Metric units of measure-ment in thi
8、s specification are in accordance with the Interna-tional System of Units (SI). If a value for measurement asgiven in this specification is followed by an equivalent value inother units, the first stated is to be regarded as the requirement.A given equivalent value may be approximate.1.7 This standa
9、rd does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

13、during testing. If no HPI is specified, the fittinginstructions shall be used to obtain a reasonable fit. If thespecified HPI does not provide a reasonable fit as determinedby the technician, or the fit with the specified HPI or fittinginstructions is likely to yield erroneous test results, the tech
14、ni-cian shall fit the headgear to the best of their ability on the mostappropriate headform.1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F08 on SportsEquipment, Playing Surfaces, and Facilities and is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee F08.53 on Headgear and Helmets.Current

Significance and Use4.1 Womens Lacrosse is a distinctive sport with inherentrisks. Participation in the sport implies acceptance of risk ofinjury. This specification was
17、developed to address forces ofsome of the incidental stick and ball to headgear impacts tonon-goaltending field players that may occur while engaging inWomens Lacrosse. Although headgear satisfying this specifi-cation may provide limited protection against some impacts,catastrophic/life threatening
18、impacts are not addressed by thisspecification. In addition, the cumulative effect of multiplesub-concussive impacts is not addressed here.NOTE 1Protection provided by headgear satisfying this specificationis not equivalent to the protection provided by “helmets” used in manyother sports activities.
19、 Headgear that meets these standard specificationsmay not provide significant protection in some head impact situations.5.
