I heard there were new chest protector requirements- do we need to purchase new pads?Not yet, however if purchasing new or used chest protector, know they should meet the new requirements if you plan to get more than on year out of them.
The use of goalie chest protectors that meet the NOCSAE performance standard, ND200, is now mandatory in the USA Lacrosse boys’ and girls’ youth rules, the NFHS boys’ and girls’ high school rules, and the NCAA men’s and women’s rules. Beginning in 2022, boys’ and men's field players must also wear chest protection that meets the ND200 standard.
