INTRODUCTION
For over 80 years, Riddell has been the recognized leader in helmet technology and innovation. Founded
with the mission to make sports equipment safer, better, and easier to use, Riddell continues to address the
evolving protective equipment needs of the athlete. Today, Riddell equipment is seen on football fields from
coast-to-coast, protecting every level of player—from youth athletes to NFL professionals.
Our commitment to the Sideline Response System™ (SRS™) is a natural extension of our intimate
involvement with team sports and our core competence in player protection. SRS is an interconnected matrix
of advanced technologies that together define the next generation in head impact exposure monitoring.
Concussions and other MTBI’s are sometimes called “invisible injuries” because symptoms may not appear
for 24 hours (or later) after a head injury. The athlete may not immediately have impaired motor skills nor
be aware of the injury, making detection and evaluation extremely difficult for sideline personnel.
The Sideline Response System monitors and records head impact exposure during play and alerts sideline
personnel that an atypical exposure has occurred. It improves the efficiency and effectiveness of all sideline
staff, and it encourages the consistent application of appropriate practices by qualified personnel.
You must read this User Guide completely before set-up and use of the Sideline Response System. If you
need assistance with use of the system, please contact Riddell SRS Customer Support at [phone].
