[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did a little research on concussion head bands. There were two separate studies done, one by Virginia Tech and another from Washington University that completely contradicted each other. My coach also said it was not effective. With it being around $60 each, it’s a cheap investment but I wonder how uncomfortable and hot it will be to wear when the weather is around 90 degrees.

PS. When the ball was very deflated, it was very soft. She enjoyed heading the ball and was without fear. [/quote]

What I can tell you beyond the studies is purely anecdotal BUT I know some kids who had concussions, and after wearing the headband, years later, they haven't had any. And I'm talking situations where they should have.  I can tell you it's brand dependent. Some really work; some don't.  So research what you by.  Storelli as an overall brand has quality products, but I haven't specifically looked at their headbands.   However, it's a cheap investment, and like safeguards with long socks, they can get used to it.

Nothing to rush out and buy, but something to consider if your concerns grow as she does. [/quote]
