best Sport Gloves for Playing Goalball? (self.Blind)
submitted by ForceR-1356
Does anyone have have recommendations for the best type of gloves to use when playing goalball?
My husband suggested football gloves, but not sure if those would get me disqualified in a tournament. Also, I want something to protect my hands, when catching the ball.

I would imagine the football gloves that are made for wide receivers to wear would be a good choice along with soccer goalie gloves possibly. Both have some grip built in on the palms to help with catching a fast moving ball.

Don't wear gloves, you'll be buying new ones constantly. Instead do what all the best players do and tape the tips of your fingers

Cool, thanks. What type, k-tape?

No. Just regular athletic tape. It's best to use a few vertical strips that go up and over your fingertip and then stabilize them by wrapping them horizontally with the rest of the tape

Are you allowed to wear gloves?
This sounds like a question for the manager for the team you're part of it there may be local rules.

Yes, we are allowed to use gloves. Just want to know what type would be good, such as football, baseball, biking?
