EN 13546:2002+A1:2007 (E) 4 Introduction Protective equipment is worn on the shins by most field hockey players to reduce t
25、he severity of injuries from accidental impacts by the hockey ball, hockey sticks and other players. Goalkeepers more extensive protective equipment is designed to be both playing equipment to stop the ball entering the goal and to return it into play in a controlled manner, and also to be protectiv
26、e equipment which reduces the severity of injuries from accidental impacts by the hockey ball, hockey sticks and other players on parts of the goal-keepers body not normally used for playing the ball. Impacts on the playing surfaces of the goal-keepers equipment may be considered deliberate as they
27、are part of the way the game is played. Such playing surfaces should have protection behind them that as far as possible eliminates the risk of injury in normal play at the level of competition for which the products are designed. Genital protectors are worn by some adult players to protect against
28、hockey ball impacts. Similar products are used in other ball sports such as cricket and lacrosse, but these will not be appropriate for field hockey unless tested to the same or greater severity than is required in this standard. It has been assumed in the drafting of this standard that the executio
29、n of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people, for whose guidance it has been prepared. The apparatus described should only be used by competent persons and requires safeguards to prevent, as far as is reasonably practicable, injury to the operator and other pers
30、ons. This standard does not cover helmets, face masks and throat protection. !The impact energies for shin protectors to be used to test different performance levels of equipment as specified in Table 17 have been modified to encompass ergonomic requirements like comfort and mass for field hockey pl
31、ayers. It also reflects experience of test laboratories and manufacturers.“ 1 Scope This standard specifies the general requirements for the ergonomics, performance, innocuousness, sizing and coverage of field hockey goal keepers equipment, providing protection to the hands, arms, chest, abdomen, le
32、gs, feet and genitals, and field players shin protectors. Requirements for the marking of equipment and the information to be supplied by the manufacturer are given. Test methods are described and performance levels are defined. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or

For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only
