Hello everyone!

We are in the process of mass ordering some custom designed helmets, and would like to know of all those people that are willing to put their hard earned pennies into a pot to help promote FHF! We aim to get a number of helmets designed with the funky new FHF logo shown around the world. This is a forum dominated by goalies, so come on and show your support!

You can also have pretty much anything else that you wish to have on your helmets. ie: name, team, number or even Elvis if you wish! All that we ask is that if you are going to get your helmets done with us, is that you have the FHF logo on the helmet showing somewhere.

At the moment, if we manage to get at least 10 people involved, we can get costs down to €200 to spray the helmet. However, the more people we get having it done, the cheaper it will be! Now, I understand this is NOT CHEAP, but if you would like to help show your support for FHF on the pitch, and get a funky design on your helmet, in my opinion it kills two birds with one stone!

I have uploaded a copy of the template here: http://www.fieldhockeyforum.com/gallery/1659_15_09_08_12_38_41.jpg - If you want me to send you a copy, please PM me.

You can either buy a new helmet, or even get your current one re-sprayed. We recommend that you do not get plastic helmets painted, as it may effect the level of protection that it was designed for. All others are fine!

If however, you dont want to help out in this mini marketing scheme, and still are interested in having your helmet redesigned, you are more than welcome to use our painter directly www.thegrafixer.com.

I must stress that this is NOT FOR PROFIT. We are only organising this on a cost basis only.

Wow, I've always been a bit bored with the usual OBO designs... Can you literally have anything on it? I've sent you a message I think (I'm new to this)... Let me know if you've got it... I want:

Club Logo
Number 1
"Big Bob"

and perhaps a nice catch phrase...

Thanks, Bob

Makes it easier to know what you really want

Thanks!

[Folmer]

Great initiative Zulu!
What type of helmets are you ordering? Depending on that I might be interested.

[zuluhockey]

Thanks Folmer!

I try my best to help the world of FHF when I can 

We are looking at doing some mass Stacey orders, as to keep him busy...! However you dont have to choose any particular brand - let us know and we shall  try and find it for you..

(DISCLAIMER - I am a Hockey retailer, but this is being done at cost only)

Are they going to have anything "stacey" on them to distiguish?? (I'm hoping not as my custom design is going to be well good :D)

Stacey does some fantastic plain helmets. His forte is whats in the helmet, not on the helmet. Thats where the airbrushing comes in!

[hot shot viks]

I may have to make up a design!!!!

Give me a day or so, and let me see how my funds are doing and ill get back to you!!!!

Please download the new template here:
http://www.stick-media.com/fhf_helmet_designs I took off the old one, and for some reason couldnt get another back on there... So here it is until I work out how to do it again...

[newty-fruit]

Overpriced.. i give it a miss!

[philthy]

I'd love a shiny new helmet... but I only got mine in the November sale and I'm still quite fond of my ghosts and skulls!!!

[zuluhockey]

Thanks for your input. I forgot to mention - if you can find it better elsewhere, please let me know!

would love to have a helmet custom designed - but I'm useless at designing things or even thinking of a good design. I think if I was able I'd go for a black background with some yellow and gold lightning on it?
My colour scheme is black/yellow sp's with either a yellow smock or black smock so I'd want something to match that.  I use an OBO flame at the moment.

[Snoody]

Very tempting.
I'll see what I can put together.
Cheers.
