All Star Catchers Equipment : In order to maximize performance and prevent injury you
must buy the right equipment.
Football Equipment
Shopping for football equipment can be a pain in the butt
if you don't know what you're doing. Fortunately for you, Kidzworld's got the 411
on what to look for when buying!
Cleats
Football shoes are designed differently defending on what
position you play. Typically high-top cleats are made for linemen who need
extra ankle support for lateral movements. Mid-cut shoes combine support with
maneuverability for players like running backs, quarterbacks and corner backs.
Low-cut cleats are the lightest and most maneuverable shoe and are used by wide
receivers. Football shoes are also made for the type of field you play on. If
you play on turf rather than grass, molded cleats are the preferred choice,
whereas detachable cleats work better on grass. Buying the proper shoe for your
position will help maximize your performance while reducing the risk of injury.
Buying a used shoe is a possibility, but we advise you to get a new shoe and
have a football expert recommend the appropriate shoe for you.
Football Helmet Visors
It is important that you choose a helmet that is big
enough to provide you with a little room and suit you easily, however tight
enough that it stay there and won't drop. The next thing is selecting the best
face mask. For lineman, you want a face mask along with several bars for
provide maximum protection. Broad receivers, running backs, quarterbacks and
kickers must only use face mask along with less bars for optimum visibility.
Also choose a jaw pad and chin strap that will fit the size of the helmet.
Helmets are probably something that you can buy used. Just make sure they are
in good condition, because after all, this is your head we are talking
about!
Football Shoulder Pads
When you are buying shoulder pads, ask your coach or other
store expert which shoulder pad types are right for your position. When it
comes to picking hip pads, thigh and knee pads and tailbone pads, you should
always choose those that fit your body perfectly. That means not too tight and
not too loose. Quality is huge when buying pads. Whether you buy new or used,
don't sacrifice quality. You want the best protection possible, even if it
costs you a couple extra bucks!
Mouth guard
Do you enjoy having teeth? If you said yes, make sure you
keep it that way by wearing a mouthguard. Although they are a bit
uncomfortable, they are cheap and they protect your tongue and teeth.
