Safety Helmets – just a reminder that ALL PHPA Youth are required to wear an approved safety helmet, this is for led classes as well as ridden classes.
Approved helmets should have the following safety rating
ASNZ 3838 (Aus/ N.Z standard)
Also approved are : EN 1384, PAS 015, ASTM F1163, BSEN 1384
anyone using an EN 1384 helmet will be able to continue using it until the end of 2016.
As of January 1st 2017 the EN 1384 safety helmet will no longer be approved. Now would be a good time to check all your child’s (and your) helmet and make sure they meet the current safety requirements
