The universal-fit attachment design makes this back plate compatible across multiple shoulder pad brands and models, making it a practical choice for programs that use mixed equipment from different manufacturers. Multi-density foam absorbs impact energy from rear hits and the compression forces that occur during gang tackles and pile situations. The back plate covers the lumbar region and kidney area, addressing the protection gap that exists between the bottom of the shoulder pads and the hip pad line.
