Pitching Arm Sleeve

Colors of uniform would make sense. Use camo one for practice

That is what we have decided to do. She will have a solid black one for games and the camo for practice. Thanks for the input.

Many of the college teams use digi-camo for games. Sleeves, pants, and even uniform tops.

Hey riseball, I know your daughter is a pitcher. Did she ever try pitching with a compression sleeve on? Do you have any experience with them?

Wears full compression UA unless it is hot. Never really was interested in the sleeve but all 3 other pitchers at her school use them. I think there is a benefit as described, and many wear them because - Hey the look cool! SC is a UA shop and I will not be surprised if she starts using one after she transfers especially given the cooler weather.

Thanks. DD recently had some tendonitis (golfer's elbow), and the compression sleeve was suggested to her by a physical therapist specializing in athletics. Also doesn't hurt that they look cool...

The BIG thing that sleeves ended up providing was protection from raspberries from head first sliding. At some point DD became a base-diver. The open wounds she would get on the inside of her elbows would hamper the pitching.

DD says the same thing....keeps her arm warm and "whippy". My DD has long thin arms so we use the Evo Youth size and it works great and doesn't slide down.
