FULL90 PERFORMANCE HEADGUARDS

NAMED OFFICIAL HEADGUARD OF MAJOR INDOOR SOCCER LEAGUE (MISL)


By Anonymous



MISL officials and coaches have been outspoken advocates of protective headgear indoor soccer. Headguards offer soccer players a heightened level of protection by reducing risks associated with head-to-head or head-to-knee contact, without affecting their style of play.



“We see the problems associated with concussions from soccer injuries,” said MISL Commissioner Steve Ryan. “We definitely don’t want to compromise the integrity of the game, and these Headguards provide safety without changing the game. That’s why we’re delighted to bring on Full90 Sports as a sponsor of the MISL, and to promote their headguards during the season.”



“As longtime indoor soccer fans ourselves, we’re very happy to join up with the MISL,” said Jeff Skeen, President and CEO of Full90 Sports. “Like them, we want to see players stay true to the game while still taking common-sense safety precautions. As the many players who wore the Full90 Headguard during the recent Women’s World Cup proved, this is something you can wear without changing your game.”
