A lacrosse helmet is a protective device used primarily in men's lacrosse. Modern helmets consist of a hard plastic, non-adjustable shell with thick padding on the inside, a facemask made of metal bars, and a chinstrap used to secure the helmet. Some players attach a sun visor to their helmets. Helmets are a requirement at all levels of organized men's lacrosse,[1] but only for goalies in women's lacrosse.[2].
