Re: IRFU-backed N-Pro head guard study
Cistercian Roscrea have had a partnership with N-Pro for a few years now with a lot playing rugby in the school wearing them
Interesting to see it on a wider scale.

Re: IRFU-backed N-Pro head guard study
For anyone involved in rugby coaching there is a webinar this Thursday launching the IRFU-backed scientific study of the effectiveness of N-Pro headgear (7pm). The study will take place on players aged 16+ over two years. It is led by Dr Philip J. O’Halloran, Consultant Neurosurgeon at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham and a global team of research experts. This team will independently evaluate if a novel head-gear design (N-Pro) can have an effect on blood and saliva biomarker levels, and other known indicators of brain injury.
