    Can't compete without proper headgear. HELP?!

    I've been doing Jiujitsu for almost a year now and would love to compete. As a kid I had brain surgery and it's only possible for me to compete with the proper headgear. The material needs to be soft all around, otherwise it won't pass IBJJF restrictions. I've been looking and asking around without succes so far.
    Only thing I found is this vid of Marcio Feitosa wearing what looks like just the thing I'm looking for. It might be bandages wrapped around his head or some type of headgear that's in one piece.

    Hope someone has the answer... Cuz I just can't wait to get my hand raised on that mat for the first time!

    Look into buying a Scrum Cap, Rugby players where them, and technically the have to be made with no rigid (plastics, metals) hard materials, and most of them are made of a softer closed cell foam.
