Factoid: A water polo ball weighs about 15 ounces dry (0.425kg). Professional women water polo players throw the ball (average for a team) at about 35mph (15.5m/s).
Usually, a water polo goalie doesn't wear any head gear. While a head gear might prevent a fracture, I would think it would offer no protection from a concussion.
