SUMMIT Sport stocks rugby headgear from Madison, covering junior through adult sizing for rugby league, rugby union and AFL in one place. These use a compression-moulded foam construction with ventilation holes, so the choice often comes down to fit and price.
The Madison Air Flo and Scorpion models sit at the more affordable end of the range. Fit matters more with headgear than with most protective equipment: measure head circumference just above the eyebrows and ears rather than guessing from age, and check the specific size chart for the model you want, since sizing varies between brands and even between models from the same brand. A loose headguard can shift during a tackle and leave part of the head exposed right when it matters most, so err on the snugger side if you are between sizes.
A mouthguard is worth treating as essential alongside headgear for any contact training or match day, and our wider rugby range covers the rest of your kit.
If you need new football boots to go with the rest of your kit, that range covers rugby, AFL and soccer boots in one place. Explore the full range to find the right brand, size and budget for your season.
