volleyball... wrist pads???


Question Posted Sunday January 25 2009, 10:48 pm

Ok, I've been playing volleyball for my school and on club for about 2 years now. I've always had extremely skinny wrists, where the bone kind of pops out and, unfortunately for my wrists, I play back row. It hurts SO bad when I dig the ball on serve receive and defense. Is there such thing as like pads for your wrists? Or just anything that kind of protects my skinny wrists from hard blows... I always have bruises on my wrists and they hurt so bad. Also, are the "wrist pads", if there are any, legal in school or club volleyball? Thank you so much!

I'm not sure if there are wrist pads or not that are legal to actually wear... I am a certified referee and we're not to allow any jewelery (because it could cause an injury) or anything that could excel someones playing ability. So, in my league you wouldn't be allowed to wear the wrist guards/bands/pads that have anything hard on them (plastic) because the ball could bounce off of it, and well, that would just be unfair, haha. You might possibly be allowed wrist pads that are simply foam or material, but I'm not sure. Also, if your wrist are weak.. then you can tape them for support :)

Yes i have seen them online there is this one website i know of here it is www.morleyathletic.com/sports/volleyball/supplies/kneepads-wrist-palm-pads/m14956-skids-wrist-wrap-support.htm
I am not sure if it is legal, but you could ask your coach to make sure. And if you really need them she might even order you some but that depends on your coach. You should talk to you parent or legal guardian to help you on this topic.
Hope I helped,
Soup for the soul
