We do down here in La. When we play other teams or a tournament our kids wear their helmets.

Yes you are allowed to wear helmets for all workouts not just 7-7. I am not sure but think the first day you are able to is July 5th. A great rule for us gets the kids use to a helmet plus it does take away the risk a bit when they have helmets on. So where did you end up at u never said.

Yes, you can wear helmets. A lot of schools issue them for the 7 on 7 stuff that they do. I know in some tounaments they are mandatory. Not sure that there is a specific date that you have to wait to issue them. Most schools I know issue them now and have them all summer long.

Wingtol & coachcalande,
I'm not sure if your districts are different or not, but in ours (7) all we need is a letter from our principal giving us permission to use helmets for conditioning purposes and we are allowed to wear them. We have already passed them out, but are not going to use them until we have mini-camp the week of 5/29. Our principal is on the district football committee and he checked it out with both our district head and the PIAA and they said there was no set date when you could start with helmets, you just had to have the principal's permission in writing to use helmets. We are scheduled to go to a passing camp at W & J on June 15 and they tell you to bring your helmets to the 7 on 7 sessions. You might want to check with your principals and your districts to see if they have anything different then the PIAA.
