Brother Rice Crusaders Gear Up for 8A Dominance
This summer, the Brother Rice Crusaders are gearing up for another strong 8A season with the latest helmet visor and turf tape trends. The team is opting for the Riddell SpeedFlex helmet with the Riddell SpeedFlex Visor, which provides enhanced impact protection and a sleek, aerodynamic design ($150-$200). The visor's anti-fog coating and improved ventilation system will help Crusaders stay focused on the field, even in humid Chicago weather. When it comes to turf tape, the team is using the Mueller ProFlex 2-inch athletic tape, which provides superior grip and support ($5-$7 per roll). 8A athletes prefer this gear because it allows for a more secure grip on the ball and improved traction on the turf. Parents, consider investing in a high-quality athletic tape for your child's safety and performance this season.
