The following information is intended to be a helpful guide to identifying the right size goalkeeping protective products.
All guidelines are laid down by the Cambridge Standard for PPE certification Issue 1. dated 3/9/1995.
The following sizing table relates to the size of equipment suitable to the height of the player, but in every case a visual interpretation of the degree of fit should be applied since individual body dimensions may vary.
Kickers to protect the feet should cover the toe and the heel when viewed from the medial, instep, side of the foot. Legguards should fit snugly on the top of the kickers and when in this position should extend at least 10cm above the knee. Gloves - when choosing gloves the left hand fingertips should not touch the end, when the hand is open flat.
