NEW AMA RULE REGARDING YOUTH CLASSES (2023)
In 2023 a new rule was implemented for all YOUTH class participants of AMA sanctioned events - it is now REQUIRED that your child sports a chest protector that offers full chest and back protection. The chest protector can be worn above or beneath the jersey, and should cover the Sternum, Anterior (front of) Ribs, Posterior (back of) Ribs, and Spine from T1 to T12. More information about this rule can be found in the AMA Rulebook HERE (specific text regarding this rule begins on page 29) and you can find the full list of AMA Youth classes HERE.
