see we got our football uniforms today for my high school football team and I got a medium sized helmet...not im only 5'5" 128lbs..so you wouldnt think i need a big helmet..but when i put it on, it hurts like real bad it hurts my ears and the top of my head..do i need a bigger size?

I would say probably no. The same thing happened to me when I started to play. One think you could do is change the ear pads. Another thing you can do is deflate the air in the helmet. Ask you coaches how to do it. However after wearing the helmet for a long time you will get used to it and it will not hurt.

no dont its supposed to be like that, if you go to large and hit, or get hit it will fly off and you can get a concussion. :)


well whatever lol still i like what you said i forgot about the ear pads :) lol

Yes...


Its Possible you need a bigger helmet or You need to Change ear pieces out of the helmet and deflate the top so it doesnt feel painful....

Big Heads Are Good... U Better Be able to Hit Hard With a Big Cue ball head... :)

good luck and get it done!

Also,
Mouth Pieces Prevent Concussions....Not Helmets.... Helmets just protect from brain damage and your face :-D

If your doing American style football, it should be snug, but unless some jerk pops you, it should protect not hurt. Try a larger- but design may be the issue- 50 yr vet.

no its not soposed to hurt u idiots its soposed to be comfortabe but not fall of
