Law 4 – The Players' Equipment
Non-Basic Equipment
 
  • A player must not use equipment or wear anything that is dangerous to himself/herself or another player


  • Modern protective equipment such as headgear, facemasks, knee and arm protectors made of soft, lightweight, padded material are not considered to be dangerous and are therefore permitted


  • New technology has made sports spectacles much safer, both for the players themselves and for other players
