The Peterborough U16 Wolverines are taking a lead in concussion prevention and awareness in local football.
The Wolverines are piloting the use of a soft leather cap or shell to be worn on the exterior of helmets intended to reduce the impact of contact on the head and neck to prevent concussions. The Wolverines purchased the Area 51 Guardian brand caps used in the NFL and more than 500 U.S. colleges and 5,000 American high schools.
