HI, I use them for severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. They work way way better then the ones that Arsenio Hall sells on TV!! I brought them ones and sent them back they were horrible!!!! As for sports injury you really need to ask a Doctor, but they are great for pain i love them and they are priced right...

No am past the sports age. I do use them for gardening, outside chores, mowing grass, etc. I alsosleep in them after working outside. I suggest more than one pair so you can switch off and always have a clean pair.

This brace has a hard material along the outside of the thumb, which might protect you from pain. However, depending on the type of injury you have, the hard material might also cause pain if bumped. I suggest that you buy it and try it. If it doesn't work, return it. I believe if you say the reason for return is that the product does not work, your return shipping is free. You might check that with Amazon first.

I use the the 5mm knee sleeve for basketball and running. It has allowed me to return to these activities without the pain that was shutting me down. I'm almost positive that this sleeve would offer the same pain reduction and support for tennis.

I do not see it affecting your throwing one bit. If anything would probably help causebitbdoes govebsome added support. But without limiting your hand like those wrist braces you get from the doctor.... I'm sure you can use these and still throw a ball fine. I see in baseball done pitchers have a similar thing on their wrists.

It should be helpful for weak hands. Sounds like you could have carpal tunnel.

I'm sure that wearing gloves will give you the same strength-conditioning as bare handed training would. I have never used gloves with my hand grippers, but if I did- I would use a good quality driving glove that didn't hinder my ability to close my hand into a fist. Or you could try a batting glove or golfer's glove.

I use mine for racquetball after a torn rotator cuff. I like it. It seems to give the needed support.

It has work great for me, ever since my heart surgery evoshield has been a life saver for me. I use it for my softball games 3x a week of playing. I play in the infield and bad hops is part of the game.

It's used for play sports. I use specifically for mountain races to avoid sprains.

I don't play, but I know that working with the balls strengthens the hands. I don't think that it would hurt.

It will work for any sport, you can even take out the plastic supports on the side if you do grappling. The best soft knee brace on the market in my opinion.

Volleyball or other "normal" pads are only somewhat effective for soccer. I wear a pair of 661 mountain biking knee pads. Very thick so lots of protection but the problem is that they move on the initial impact be it diving for a save or falling off my bike. I'm picking up a pair of these to wear UNDER my pads so that the big pad will take the fall and when it slips or moves this "base layer pad" will hopefully stay securely in place and absorb any additional impacts or sliding. The only question is since these were designed for basketball and a smooth court will the material holdup to the "grass" I play on which is very rough and unforgiving. We'll see...

Yes, this brace works great for volleyball and fits well with volleyball shoes. Volleyball is the reason these braces were purchased.

Most definitely. Especially if you need support when in wrist extension while isometrically holding the shot put prior to your throw. Moreover, they may also help to prevent any excessive radial/ulnar deviation as well if your struggling with stabilization.

I don't know. I use it to hold on to my racquetball racquet as I don't wear a glove
