HELMETS
To ensure player safety, the YMCA requires all players to wear a GameBreaker-branded helmet. If your child already owns a GameBreaker helmet, they may use it. Otherwise, you can purchase one at the link below. Our discounted GameBreaker helmets come with a mouthguard and a sports bag. Alternatively, you may purchase a GameBreaker helmet from another vendor.
