This currently means that there is no regulatory guidance on how these pieces of equipment should perform, neither in Europe nor anywhere in the world. This places the responsibility of deciding how to test a product onto manufacturers and test laboratories, which can lead to inconsistencies and the possibility of poorer quality products entering the market. To help resolve this deficiency, the FIH is currently sponsoring a PhD research project at Loughborough University in the UK. Phase 1 of this project has looked at the performance of field-player penalty corner face protectors \/ masks. The work is now complete and published (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007\/s10439-025-03794-z\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAssessing Field Hockey Face Mask Performance - Annals of Biomedical Engineering\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e) and its recommendations and findings have been adopted by the FIH.
