Myths about helmet painting never die

Hands are part of the bat, too.

Our team's softball helmets were custom painted by the manufacturer, Riddell, using the very same paint that it uses for FOOTBALL HELMETS. Apparently, the "mysterious chemical reaction weakens the helmet" theory doesn't prevent virtually every football team in America from having their helmets painted. Yet the myth persists in softball. And will survive this thread.

Bottom line: ASA doesn't prohibit painted helmets.
