The devestating news about Phil Hughes highlights the dangers posed by a blow to the head in cricket. Phil suffered his fatal injury despite wearing a helmet, and yet every summer weekend in England and Wales there are tens of thousands of batsmen who don't wear any protective headgear. 

Not wearing a helment just for the sake of comfort and convenience is simply not worth the risk.

Plese sign this petition and show the ECB made that it's time they made helmets mandatory at all levels of recreational cricket.
