Scope 1.1 This Standard specifies performance requirements and test methods for helmets marketed, sold, and intended for ice hockey. Such helmets may also be used for lacrosse and ringette. Notes: (1) The intent of this Standard is to reduce the risk of injury to the head without compromising the form or appeal of the game. This reduction of risk is based on the use of the face protector (a) as intended within the rules of the game; and (b) in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. (2) Ice hockey is a sport in which there is a risk of injury. Helmets meeting the requirements of this Standard afford no protection from neck or spinal injuries. Severe head, brain, or spinal injuries, including paralysis or death, can occur in spite of using a helmet certified to this Standard. 1.2 This Standard specifies requirements for (a) construction; (b) shock absorption; (c) penetration; (d) retention systems; (e) field of vision; and (f) marking and information. 1.3 Helmets covered by this Standard are intended to be used by (a) players; (b) goalkeepers; and (c) certain functionaries (e.g., referees, coaches). 1.4 In CSA Standards, "shall" is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; "should" is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; "may" is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard; and "can" is used to express possibility or capability. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.
