The system includes a helmet, the helmet comprising a shell having a crown region; a first tether, the first tether having a first end and a second end, the first end connected to the crown region of the shell of the helmet; and a uniform comprising a waist band and/or belt, the second end of the first tether connected thereto, the first tether having a slack region, wherein the momentum of the first tether upon matching the momentum of the sport participant eliminates the slack region of the first tether and restrains the helmet of the sport participant, reducing the chance of receiving a concussion.
