In Canada, a concussion happens every 3 minutes.
Health Canada estimates up to 60,000 Canadian children and youth sustain a serious, quality of life altering, preventable head injury each year.
Preventable head injuries are a multi-billion dollar problem.
We spend $2,000,000,000 to treat and support Canadians sustaining a head injury each year.
The Canadian Government infused over $4,000,000 into concussion research 2013. Another 2 million 2016 to create and promote a national plan to solve the problem. more...
Health Canada has always put the Health and Safety of our children at the top of the list

Hidden injuries, mild brain trauma can severely affect a young person’s brain: more...
Awareness, detection, healing time have never been more important because concussion symptoms may not show up right after impact (you don't have to be knocked unconscious). more...
Forcefield Protective Headgear™ can be a part of your safety plan; only part of the plan. Headgear does not make it safe to play fearlessly.
Headgear does reduce the impact forces reaching your head and your brain.
While you're learning how keep your body safe, especially when you fall, protecting your head is not always second nature. Helmets are already standard equipment in cycling and Canskate up to level 5, but helmets may not be appropriate in all situations. Protecting your head is still, and always important. So, for all those other non-helmeted sports and leisure activities, you can wear Forcefield Protective Headgear™.
It's a big responsibility. What steps are you taking to prevent your child from head injuries?

what they're saying about Forcefield®
“It is in my opinion a very urgent matter and they really work.”
“At each stage of my daughter’s development, I’m able to add protection she wants to wear.”
Marilyn B., Ottawa ON
“My sons and I think headbands under our toques make our paper route ‘complete the street’ competitions less risky on icy winter afternoons.”
Manny B., Winnipeg MB
“I see concussions on a frequent basis. Occasionally I have patients with post concussive symptoms that last over a year, preventing them from going to school and participating in any activities. It’s a huge problem and anything to prevent head injury is welcome. Not only reducing impact, this Forcefield headband can prevent hematomas and lacerations and scrapes, all good to reduce head injuries. I am glad to help spread the word.”
Dr. Jeff Weisbrot, MD, FRCP(C), Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Behavioral Counseling Medical Education Specialist. Pediatrician. Director of Medical Education, MacKenzie Health. Past Chief of Pediatrics York Central Hospital and Staff Physician, The Hospital for Sick Children. ‘Should I Worry’ Author.
“I have tested this headband on my own players at the very top of Swedish fotboll and want to recommend their use. It is in my opinion a very urgent matter and they really work. After a week or so the player is used to the head guard and is not hindered when playing with it.”
Mikael Klotz, REHAB Doctor Hammarby Fotboll, Physiotherapist, Chairman SFSF, Physiotherapists in Swedish Soccer
“Helmets and headbands do not prevent concussions. Their cushioning effect reduces the degree of kinetic energy directed to the head and the brain; an extra layer of protection from a blow to the head.”
Dr. Brian Hunt, Canadian Neurosurgeon, Concussion Education and Awareness Committee Expert, ThinkFirst BC co-Founder
