Are football helmet suppose to hurt when youo slip the on and off?

Hi! Thanks for dropping by, i got a football helmet because i joined high school football, and when i put my helmet on... it hurts like hell! And are their any different size cheek pads? Because i think that my cheekpads are the reason why my helmet hurts so much when i put it on.

Yeah, most helmets can snap in different size pads for the cheeks. Also, take your fingers and pull out on the ear holes to widen the helmet as you put it on. It'll save your ears some pain.

its supposed to be quite tight to the head but and when i was in junior high football the helmet hurt like nothing else, but you get used to it dont worry

you get used to it... if you want to then just exchange cheeck pads with someone else...

Well when i play football in cold weather (I've played in snow storms) the helmet tightens up and becomes very stiff, therefore is really painfull. But other then that it never really hurts me.

It may be your cheek pads or your taking it off wrong. Put your thumbs in the holes by the cheek pasd, pull out and the helmet should be easy to take off.

They are not called Cheek pads they are referred to as ear pads. You can change the pads. You will need to ask your equipment manager for the details for obtaining thinner ear pads. If this does not work you need to check the availability of getting a larger helmet size.

no unless you have a big head

Don't be a girl

Its supposed to fit tight, but not uncomfortably tight. Maybe one size smaller on the pads. Sounds like you are almost where ya need to be.

no
