Volleyball question :]


Question Posted Tuesday February 26 2008, 6:54 pm

Ok, I play volleyball for my highschool team, and I have to dive for the ball a lot. Is there anything I could wear under my knee pads so that they don't leave a carpet burn when I slide? I tend to dive a lot [habit ha ha] and I always get big carpet burns so my knees are all red and it hurts to put my knee pads on. My friend said to wrap them in medical tape, but that would just make my legs stiff. Help?

You will need to put a softer material underneath your knee pads, thats strange i never got carpet burn when i dive for the ball. but our knee pads were always new. but like wool it helps the ballet shoes inside maybe that will help you, the ballerinas put wool inside where there toes are fro there wouldnt be as much harndess. maybe you should put that underneath or anything that is comfortable for you to play in. try looking at sft materials for you to cut and place underneath teh knee pad but i dont recommend you wrapping ti around your knee then you might probably by more stiff and not has flexible aorund the knee area. hmm try wool cotton balls like the soft lining of the wind breakers.
always remeber Bump Set Spike lol

Dear Volleyball,
Hey this is Maggie Maclean's sister Maggie doesn't know that much about volleyball so I told her I would help her with this question.
'I to play Volleyball, and I would personally suggest that if your knee-pads aren't working for you, then you should definitely invest in some new ones.
Now, if your anything like me, your knee-pads are probably pretty important to you, and maybe you don't want a new pair. So I would suggest that you buy some of that headband material, that basket ball and volleyball players wear in order to keep their bangs back, and out of their face. Just use it to wrap around your knees, hidden under your knee-pads.
I don't know if it would work, But it's worth a try.

Sincerely,
Matty Maclean.
